Thoughts of the day- January 27

What did we do today?

  • We had CAFE today and some of the books recommended and shared were: The Red Pyramid, A Day to Remember, Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, Geronimo Stilton, Number the Stars, Bella's Gift, Magyk, Zac Powers, Bridge to Terabithia, The Alchemyst, Camp X, Wings of Fire, The Forbidden Forest, The Chronicles of Narnia, Vet in Harness, I Survived, and My Weird School.  We had hot chocolate while we shared our stories.
  • In math, the grade 3's reviewed fractions while the grade 4's identified if a fraction was closer to 0, 1/2 or 1.
  • Today in gymnastics, we started to make gymnastic sentence that had to include two balances, and two ways to travel.
  • In science we finished the pillar experiment, where the four small pillars were stronger than the one large pillar in the center.
  • In the City of Ember, Doon found a door and a lever that we think might be important to the Builder instructions.  Lina talked to her friend Lizzie about her discovery, but she didn't seem to care.
  • This afternoon, the spice center was introduced.  One is curry sauce.
What questions do we have after today?
  • I wonder if Doon will see another snail in the Pipeworks?  Was the door Doon found the door from the instructions?  Where does the door lead?
  • What will happen next in the novel? Will Doon figure out more of the message?  Will Doon believe Lina?  Will they become friends again?  Is inside the door caved in?
  • What books will be shared in CAFE next month?
