Moving Past September by feature blogger, Griffin and blographer, Maddie

On Monday, it got really colder and we had to wear pants instead of shorts. It got colder because of all the rain we’ve had. Also it is fall. There have been a lot of leaves on the ground where we go for our mask breaks outside. 

We played a game called Shadow Lands when we were out for our mask break. It is a game where there’s lots of squares and you can step on the squares. There’s some that are the "light" ones and some that are the "dark" ones. You have to step on all the light ones to WIN. We played Shadow Lands on the first day of school too. We might do Shadow Lands with Mrs. B. tomorrow.  

Lily got sick today. She had to go home because her tummy wasn’t feeling good. We also did language arts today. 

On Tuesday, it wasn’t that cold so most of us wore shorts. We didn’t play Shadow Lands with Mrs. B. today. At our mask break, we played tag. 

We paired up to do math and when we were done we played SET. If you have not played SET before, I’ll tell you what it is. It’s like a matching game where there’s different shapes and you can make a set with three cards. 

At 2 o’clock at home, we did the I-Ready test with Mrs. Genson and we did math on the I-Ready test too. I personally think everybody did the best they could and they did a good job.

On Wednesday, we played Apples to Apples. This is how it works. Someone picks a green card and people have 5 red cards. Whatever the green card says, like "funny," everybody would pick the funniest card and put them in the middle. One of us would read the cards out loud and pick the best card. Then whoever placed that card got the green card "funny."

We did the faces of the moon assignment. We also did some Language Arts, 3.3 Ocean adventures.

On Thursday, we were in school till 1:30. If you’re new to the blog, we’ve been usually ending school at 1 o’clock and starting at 8:30. 

We did an activity involving straws, toothpicks, and marshmallows. We did it on a paper and there were circles with numbers inside of them. 

We would have to put one marshmallow on the start, then put a toothpick on it and then get a straw and connect the toothpick, straws, and marshmallows together. This would make the toothpicks touch the circles with numbers inside of them. 

How many points were inside of the circle would be how many points we get. The highest number inside of a circle was 4. It was a fun challenge.

A Busy Week, by our feature blogger, Mia and Blographer, Chase

On Monday

We played a game that’s named SET. Everybody loved it! It was a little like the matching game. After, we did a writing assignment. 

We had to finish it to go outside, so we finished it.

Then we had a snack break and mask break. At the end of the snack break, we did races and it was me vs Maddie. We were tied and BAM! Me and Maddie slammed into each other and our knees were covered in blood. It was the first injury of the year. 

But after, we worked on some math. We went over some homework and then we got to go home!

On Tuesday 

We first did language arts. In language arts, we practiced cursive writing and we did a worksheet. 

Then before we started math, we had a snack break. After the snack break, we did a fun math game called "Around the World." It’s a game where you go against one of your classmates and you try to get the correct answer before the other person. Next, we did some science. Me and Lily got some free time because we already finished what we needed to do. So after that, we got a little homework and packed up our bags. 

 

Mrs. Bredemeier read Stories with Holes and then we went home.

On Wednesday  

The day went by very fast. We did a lot of language arts and that took up most of the day. 

After that, we went outside and had a snack. We also made a video of ourselves reading our worksheet about how we feel. 

Then we went inside and it was already 11:00! When we went inside, we did a little more language arts. We did some math and then it was 12:45. We packed up and got a lot of homework. Then it was time to go home.

On Thursday

We had to say the three words to Mrs. Koch about the kinds of sentences we studied on Monday: declarative, interrogative, and exclamatory. 

 

After that we practiced doing summaries about bats and we did that pretty much the whole day. 

 

We also played SET, a lot of people got sets. 

At the end of the day we looked at the blog and had a little homework and then we were done!

Sadly there will not be a post about Friday but maybe in the future there will be. I hope you have a good day.
