It's the end of the semester, I'm sure all the kids are excited for winter break! We had 3 tests this week, which they all did an excellent job on (with one or two exceptions)!
For our big vocabulary Weeks 1-21 final we reviewed for 2 hours together as a class. We played BINGO where the students had to recognize the meaning of each vocabulary word. The 2 winners got a special prize the next day in class. We also played tic-tac-toe, where the students were separated in to 2 teams and got to work as a group to come up with the right definition for a word. The winners got extra good points.
We also corrected and rewrote the vocabulary stories that the students had to write for homework over the weekend.
For Science, we went over the key points in Chapter 7 and had the chapter test. All students got 90% or above!! Very proud of you guys!
We had a long reading mid-term exam as well. While some students did extremely well, some really need to work on their comprehension skills and learn how to find answers from clues in a story.
This semester's last fun day is Ice Skating! It'll be fun, although Teacher Connie can't skate! =\
*Progress reports will be sent home on Friday for Class A. Class B Parents, I will post them on the blog under individual titles.
Happy New Years everyone, and hope you all have a wonderful vacation!
