We began our day with AR reading assignment. We read for 15 to 20 minutes. Once finished with AR reading, we wrote down our homework assignment. Then we reviewed our Grammar Workshop homework for tonight. Next, we took our spelling test. We read our Natural Resources booklet which was about corn. We also read about subjective and objectives. That is what we did in Language Arts today.

Neat Day!

Math

Today in math we did a warm up as usual. It was on adding decimals and random numbers. The next thing we did was correct it. After that we did a 20 problem multiplication time test. Then we took out our workbook and did 4 pages of it. It was about adding using the Properties. They were the Associative, Commutative, and Identity Property. When we finished with that lesson we read a book until lunch. After lunch was done we wrote all our homework down for the whole week. After that we read a book until math was done.

It was 11-2-17 that I was chosen to be the scribe. The scribe is a person that gets to right an amazing paragraph on this amazing website. But this is no ordinary paragraph, this is one about my day in math. Well let me reply to the question. Yes, I definitely had a great time in math. It started with a fun substitute named Ms. Perry. We (the students) all sat down in excitement to learn what we are going to do today. “Ok, turn to lesson 4. We are going to learning how to add decimals using base ten blocks,” said the teacher. It was a super fun lesson but a little easy. After we finished with the lesson we corrected it. Then came Escape the Monster Mansion. Escape the Monster Mansion is a project that you work on with your table partner. It is about you got captured by monster and the only way to escape is by using math. There are really hard problems and there is pressure. You want to be the first one in your table to finish. We worked on that to 11:45. After that we got to work on other project called Pemdas or Else. Pemdas or Else is a group project that you need to save the world with math. What these two projects teach us is that math is really important. Unfortunately math was over but we, the students, left with a smile on our faces. I wish I could back in time and do it all over again.
