We had a great time during our pumpkin lab! We made predictions, measured them, counted their lines, and found out if they would sink or float. We even had time to do the "pumpkin wobble" race!

Today during writing workshop, we worked together with our writing partners. The kids had a chance to be the editor for their partner to help them "fix up" their story. Everyone really enjoyed this and did a great job!
We have been using the Activexpressions in our classroom. With the expressions we can vote for the correct answer or text in our short answers. It all shows up on our Promethean Board! Everyone gets to participate and it is so much fun!
This week we were working on doing REAL reading, not fake reading. That means we need to think about our reading. To practice that, we used our giant thought bubble to share our thinking. We had so much fun.... And giggled a little every time we saw someone hold up the thought bubble!
