Today is Friday and it’s the last week of school!
Isabel had a great day.
She watched a movie before lunch. They watched Milo and Otis about a cat and a dog.
After lunch the class had their read-in. Isabel was so excited this morning, she didn’t understand why they didn’t do this more often during the year.
Later in the afternoon after the read-in, the class celebrated 5 summer birthdays. They had cupcakes and goodie bags were handed out. The goodie bags had candy, glow sticks, a paddle ball, and bubbles.
Isabel brought home a lot of work from throughout the year. She brought home her journal, her math folder, her easy dictionary and her phonic practice journal.
- The journal was written in almost everyday. Teacher Mrs. A would give the class a topic and they would have to write a short story about the topic.
- The math folder was where she kept math pages during class.
- The easy dictionary was a reference that Teacher Mrs. A gave the each of the kids with lists of common words they would need to know how to spell. In the back of the folder, Teacher Mrs. A left pages for the kids to write words they could ask her to spell for them.
- The phonic practice journal was used for phonics that were given each week.
She also brought home her reading challenge for the summer. She’s been given the challenge to read 2,500 minutes for 2 1/2 months over the summer. She needs to record the time, 20 minutes a day, on the Scholastic website.
