Today was KID'S DAY at GSE! We had a BLAST writing all of our talents on our shirts! It was also fun having others write on our shirts about what they believe makes us special and talented.
We began the day by writing about our talents, how we are special, and how our talent makes us feel about ourselves. Then, we drew our names on our white shirts and wrote about our talents on the front. Last, we took a marker around and let our friends write us messages on the backs of our shirts.
In Reading, we are studying Fantasty vs. Reality and continuing our story of Literary Elements (characters, setting, plot, problem, and solution). Our Spelling Packet is DUE FRIDAY OCTOBER 1st and our Spelling TEST is that day too. All groups finished their Story Wheels today from "The Strongest One". Tomorrow, we will be continuing our Literature Circles, Word Work, Guided Reading with Mrs. Thomas, and Groups A and D will have Fluency and Games. Maybe you'll get to try our new Non-Fiction Reading PLINKO game?!?
In Math, we are continuing to practice 4-digit subtraction with borrowing and regrouping. We used our base-10 blocks to manipulate numbers and practice with having to borrow from the place-value ahead of the number. Afterall...you cannot subtract $9 if you only have $5, correct?!? It can definitely be tough sometimes...but don't give up and get frustrated, KEEP TRYING!
We had a GREAT time listening to music and being with our friends during lunch! After lunch, we got to go to a brief concert in the gym! A student from SCAPA sang and played Taylor Swift on her guitar! Then, a Senior from Dunbar did some really awesome magic tricks including making a dollar float!!!
That concluded our day and Mrs. Sharp announced that because it is KID'S DAY, there will be NO HOMEWORK!!! SO COOL!
