ELA TESTING IS FINALLY OVER!

Tonight's homework: study for spelling test and complete the math worksheet: both sides.  The math is a version of the 3 minute test math test we do periodically.

It seemed to take forever to get to the end of the 2013  NYS ELA Common Core Grade 3 Test.  (The kids laughed every time I had to say all that. It was in the directions about 9 times!)

Tomorrow and Monday are half days.
 I've been reading to the class from a great book entitled Poppy . It's full of wonderful writing and raises questions everyone seems eager to think and talk about.  One of the main characters is SO bad!  Never fear, goodness and decency prevail in the end.  It's one of my favorite read alouds for this grade.

In math today, the class learned about perimeter and demonstrated their understanding by creating a unique work of art with a perimeter of exactly 52 centimeters.
