September 21

The class enjoyed celebrating Talk Like a Pirate Day last Friday. In honor of this day, during center time, the students looked through pirate books to find sentences and identify subjects and predicates, and they rewrote nursery rhymes to make them more pirate-y. Several of the students read the rewritten rhymes afterwards in excellent pirate voices.

We also have had the privilege of a police officer coming to talk to the class about how to avoid gangs and bullying and what to do if you see anything violent happening. The program is called GREAT, and he will be coming every Monday.

We will have our social studies test tomorrow (Tuesday), as well as a science test on Thursday, covering classification, vertebrates, invertebrates, fish, mammals, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and instincts. Because of the tests this week, we will not have a spelling unit.

Several students have been rushing through bellwork and not finding all the mistakes, but I want to recognize the students who got a hundred percent this past week: Wilfredo, Mason, and Mia. Good work!
