We started a new selection in language arts called The Great Wall. To start off, we listened to a read aloud about Pompeii, which was special since I visited there over winter break. I showed some pictures I took there. We talked about cause and effect; specifically, what happened (effects) because of the volcanic eruption (cause).
We worked on vocabulary for the new selection and took a spelling pretest.
Then -- we listened to the story we are going to reproduce for our play. We assigned roles. Can't wait to get started on the props and costumes!
In math, we talked about percents greater than 100 and less than 1.
We finished The Bridge to Terabithia. I always tear up at the end :(
We listened to a Cinderella type story from China called Yeh-Shen. We compared and contrasted the story elements with a traditional Cinderella story.
Finally, we worked on making bricks for a small scale sized Great Wall in the classroom. Each brick is about a friend and why that person is a friend. Loved reading those!
