Spelling: Today we played spelling battleship to practice forming words with the /s/ spelling pattern: ss, sc, s, ci, cy, ce. This will be the skill tested on the spelling test coming up on Tuesday. Note that we will begin to quicken the pace of spelling, so we should have a test every 10 days or so.

Cursive: Cursive pages 47-49 were due today.

Reading: Students worked on their Literature Circles projects, which will be presented on Tuesday.

Writing: Today was an editing day. Students spent time choosing their three editing features. Some students were ready to move beyond one or more of the standard editing features of spelling, capitals and sentence sense. The next piece of writing is due December 20.

Math: None today.

Science: None today due to technology.

Social Studies: We discussed the Alphabet Soup organizer and that was submitted for a grade. Students also made new mini-books.
