This morning I continued working on spring math assessments. Students spent the time practicing math skills through written work and games.
During social studies we continued to learn about ways to spend money wisely and budget. The students worked in groups to complete 'spending money scenarios'. The students needed to decide what items they should spend their money buying. As I was walking around I heard one student say to another "do you really think we need cotton candy?!" :)
Students also began learning about needs and wants today. We learned that a need is something you must have to live and a want is something you would really like to have, but can live without.
This afternoon the students had a substitute in the classroom while I worked on the spring round of PALS (Phonological Awareness Literacy Screening). All students completed sight word reading and a spelling test. Back in the classroom the students were busy working on writing, learning new word wall words, listening to a realistic fiction story and participating in independent literacy rotations!
This week's word wall words: better, other, show, walk
