Bill's Class

Hello out there in cyberspace!

Thank you all who attended the fair last Sunday. It was a lot of fun! We had Mad science activities, a jumper house, face painting, and treats for children and dogs.
Tony's class is having robot night on Friday November 20. They are going to be showing Transformers 2 and Wallie. This will be happening after school at 3:30. Snacks will be provided for, but will cost money. If you wish to see Transformers 2 you will need to obtain written permission from your parent. Also remember that next week is Thanksgiving break. Don't forget that we come back on Tuesday, since Monday is a staff development day.

For math we have been working on adding and subtraction with estimation and rounding to check. I will be sending all incomplete work home with your child. This is not homework but class work that is not finished. We finished our math assessment today I have graded some of them but not all yet.

We took a wordly wise test which I will be sending home as well. We also worked on capitalization and on our personal narratives. We came up with the theme of our stories today. Some of the themes were "do what you want to do not what your friends tell you to do, and always think before you act."

For our History projects we have been discussing The Boston Massacre, the Intolerable acts, and the Boston Tea party. Our book My Brother Sam is Dead is really getting suspenseful. We are having a hard time stopping the story each day.
