We started our day by writing our agenda. We did our 4 math 4 today problems. Next, we worked on our new writers workshop stories.

After that, we read our Geronimo Stilton Books. We create a web about what Geronimo did and saw during today's reading. We started Geronimo's journal entry about what happened, the weather, temperature, and details about what was happening in the story. We had to pretend we were him.

Then we took a break to celebrate Max's birthday. We ate cupcakes and milk. YUM!

We came back inside and learned 2 new different ways to do multiplication. We learned traditional method or "parents way" of multiplication. We practiced partial products method too.

After math we went to lunch. Hot lunch chicken tenders, mash potatoes, corn and fruit. You could have gravy if you wanted. We also got chocolate milk.

Next was, Monkey Math!!!! We love fact practice.

Then it was time for PE. We had PE celebration today. Thanks to Alex and Brandon for bringing snacks. We played "Get em All".

After PE we learned about decomposers. We played games about decomposers and the food chain on the computer. Then our environment groups created food chains.

Now, we are writing this. :) But we will go home soon!
