It's Friday!
Today was filled with lots of fun... well not to start but it got better.
To start the morning we took our Reading, Writing and Math Test. We will take these every Friday morning. It is only about 25 total questions and they are things we have been working on all week long.
****Other than someones name, what is another meaning for the word joey?****
After that we talked about the wolf from the Three Little Pigs story. The students discussed all the characteristics of the wolf and decided that he was a bully. Then we talked about all the different ways that people bully other. Everyone made a commitment that they would not bully others and if they saw bulling they would help by telling an adult, asking the one getting bullied to play or getting the one being bullied and go tell an adult.
**** What are the 2 ways that someone can be a bully? ****
In math today we took our number grid a step up. The number grid started at 501 and we filled in numbers all the way up to 1000. We also worked on filling in mini grids or puzzle pieces from the grid.
After Lunch today we took another fact test. Everyone made improvement!
In science today we did an experiment with fruit. We opened up 5 different fruits to find out what the seeds inside were like. Some of the fruit had just a few seeds. One only had one seed and others had MANY seeds. They were all different shapes sizes and colors.
**** What was the difference between the seeds in the cantaloupe and the peach or avocado? ****
After science we packed up and went to see Mrs. Paulson for PE.
Students brought home graded work today. It is theirs to keep at home. Also grades are up online. The log in is your last name and the password is the 8 digit number on the note card from parent night. (It's on the back of the card with my info on it)
Grades: http://www.amphi.com/~ctracy/progressreports/index.html
Students- remember to add a comment to this blog. Answer one of the questions or just write me a note. Also, vote on the poll on the right hand side AND remind your parents to check the calendar for the volunteer schedule.
Have a great weekend everyone.

About Me
This is my 9th year teaching in the Amphitheater School District and my 11th year teaching. I taught 3rd grade at Painted Sky for 7 years. Before teaching there I taught music for 2 years in TUSD at Henry. I am so happy to be a Walker Wolf this year!
I attended college at the University of Arizona and have my bachelors in Education. I am working on my master’s degree this year also at the University of Arizona. GO WILDCATS!!! I am a huge AZ basketball fan. I am an Amphitheater High School grad and I attended middle school at La Cima. In November 09 I achieved my National Board Teaching Certification. I have teaching endorsements in Early Childhood education and Second Language Learning.
I love living in Arizona and have since 1993. I was born in Phoenix but only lived there for 2 1/2 months. Before moving back to Arizona I lived in Nebraska for 9 years and attended Westridge Elementary and Elkhorn Middle School. My extended family lives on the east coast in The Washington DC area. As a kid my family visited there every summer and spent a week at the beach in North Carolina. I love the beach. I still get to go back and visit all the time.
I live in the middle of town, near the U of A. I live with my VERY cute puppy Oreo who is 4. My mom, dad and brother live here in Tucson also. My mom sometimes comes to school and helps in the classroom and my Dad and brother may come by too. My birthday is December 3!
I love monkeys, music and smiley faces. My favorite color is green. I enjoy listening to music on the radio and listening to live bands. Music is one of my favorite things to do. I love to sing songs and play the guitar, flute and keyboard. Many of you know that I play in a band on the weekends!

You can be a bully by hurting someone else physically or emotionally.
