NEWS LISTEN UP!!!!! First, at about 9:35am we had a practice test on chapter 9 in math and we went over some of the problems from the trimester test. Then, we did our vocab+clues chart for our new story Salt; some of our words are: uncharted, merchandise, and procession. A procession is a neat line of people or cars.

Next,our student teacher, Mrs.Sarina, played with the Smart Board; she was crazy. After snack we worked in our spelling and vocab book and learned about Plot in our C.L.A.S book (which took a good hour maybe). Then, Mr.Kootman taught a comprehension review on the Oregon Trail.... it was kind of like a test.

At 12:15 we went to lunch and we had a chicken sandwich. At lunch recess most of the kids (including me) played handball. Once that was done, we read Room One where Ted was still helping April and her family. Ted thinks the family is on the run. Last, we did science and we learned about ecosystems. An ecosystem is the habitat around you. If you don't know what an ecosystem or a habitat is then listen. Well a habitat is a home. An ecosystem is the living or nonliving things around you (dun,dun,dun)!! Then, we packed up our homework, and went home.
