Talkin' Tuesday...

Wowee!  After yesterday's amazing serious attitudes, inspirational activities and anti-bullying ways....

See if you can find YOUR face in the HERO....

I think today was a wee bit chatty... BUT you worked your tails off on the MAPS Reading Tests! 

Ok, so these 2 kiddos don't look too stressed out with their MAP's testing, but taking tests should be just like how you work and learn every other day of the year, right?  So, great job being comfortable, boys!

I also thought this was a great picture of showing how to Read to Self!  Reading to Self can be quite interactive like the way Jacy is reading to learn how to make a duct tape pencil topper from this nonfiction text!  We do know that Reading is THINKING...GRRR.... with Strategy....

I'll keep it short tonight.  Remember tomorrow is an early out!  It will ANOTHER goofy schedule, but I'm hoping to have 5B back on track.  We will continue working on our 3 different activities (video to yourself, comic strip app and mini booklets for NYC 5B students!) and wrapping up some more testing!

I'll know you checked the blog if....

You come in, put your name on the Smartaboard, and find a spot in the room to dance your little heart out as if you hear music blaring (of course, there won't be and you'll have to pretend!)  Keep dancing like that UNTIL I whisper in your ear the magic word.... which is... "puffalump".
