Week in Review: May 2-6

This week has been one final push to be ready for the STAAR test. Lots of review in both reading and math! I tried to keep it fun with partner work, scoot challenges, vocabulary bingo, and even two Jeopardy battles. We relaxed for the last hour on Friday after recess by reading around the room. I hope they all had a fun week and feel prepared for next week.

Math scoot review in the common area!

IXL to practice math skills

Scavenger Hunt in Scholastic News looking for non-fiction text features!

Jeopardy teams for a math game!

And the Exterminators won first place! Congratulations!

 

Vocabulary Bingo!

One final round of Jeopardy on Friday after reading a great picture book!

We made it to Friday afternoon...reading around the room to cool down after a HOT recess!

We also continued to work on our timeline for social studies and it is coming together beautifully. Every student has had a part in creating it, and they are learning so much! We will find a place to display it after the tests next week.

I hope you all have a fun and restful weekend! Please be sure to read the STAAR reminders email I sent earlier on Friday...it contains lots of tips to make Monday and Tuesday go smoothly for your child.
