Daily Five - 
Today we completed our second round of daily five. Our centres to complete were

2. work on writing - writing journals or sticker stories
3. read to self - silent read and practise our skills
4. read to someone - elbow to elbow, knee to knee I'll read to you, you read to me. Book in the middle so we can both see.
5. Listen to reading - today students took turns reading to small groups

UOI with Language focus - 
Today we used our language time to complete our first ever spelling test. Students did fairly well and were excited to complete it. They also were excited/shocked when I surprised them with a bonus word!

Math - 
Today we reviewed what an attribute was and what a pattern core was. Students then were given the challenge to create a pattern using two attributes and then circle the pattern core.

attributes:
