What We Learned Today...January 20th

Playing French Battleship!

This morning we kicked off our day with a school wide assembly in the gym before heading back to the classroom for a half hour of AR.  In ELA the students were given the hour to work on their "Matrix" blog post response.  These responses can be found at our kidblog site: www.kidblog.org/thebrescianibunch-2/ (You will need to have your child log in using their id's in order to view posts due to privacy settings). At 10:38 we had Religion and continued our lesson from last week on the Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit.  Students then spent the rest of the hour completing their short reflections.  The assignment can be found on the at the end of the Ms. Zenuk's Power Point Presentation which can be found here or on the Religion page. 

After lunch the students had Arts. Ed and they continued to work on their social justice songs on the macbooks.  These projects are really coming along nicely and I can't wait to hear the final product when the are completed!  At 1:38 we had French and continued to focus on the concept of transportation and basic questions and responses that go along with it. To end the class off the students played a game of "battleship" using key questions and responses about transportation.  If  would like to view the assignment from today it can be found on the French page (tab located at the top of the blog) or here.
