Earth Day Sharing

Our word of the day today was "small". It was a rule follower. It was an adjective. We read the words from the "ball of -all". Next, we worked with Mrs. Lauber's class to finish our Earth Day writing projects. Mrs. Myers typed them, so we can share them this afternoon. After recess, we went to library. Then, it was time for lunch and recess. For language arts today, we continued to practice for our Reader's Theater. First, we practiced our part independently. Next, we read with our partner. Then, we read through the whole play together. Some people will make props. Some people will bring props. Next, we had reading workshop time. Mrs. Myers met with the Robot and the Seal groups. We went to our second center of the day. Then, it was time for our special Earth Day performances. We practiced in our groups for sharing our performances. Then, Mrs. Myers made a stage. We shared our poems, songs, and commercials about Earth. You can check out today's performances on the blog and soon they will be on a new link of Mrs. Myers' teacher page. Then, it was recess time. After recess, Mrs. Donner was here for Junior Achievement. She taught us about jobs and why we need to have a job. We made a class book about jobs. It is in the library center. At the end of the day, Mrs. Myers read We Are Extremely Very Good Recyclers. It was a Charlie and Lola book. We ended the day with a chapter in Junie B. Jones!
