Room 18 - 2011-2012. What a good looking group! Wednesday, September 28, 2011. Day 19: Wednesday, 9/28. We had our first Meeting of the Eagles this afternoon. (It's an all-school assembly.) The kids were very good audience members and listeners. Monday, September 26, 2011. Day 17: Monday, 9/26. We settled in very nicely today. Maybe routine and expectations are starting to take hold? I'll be giving the kids some math assessments this week to check in where we are in terms of reviewing skills and kicking ...

Room 18 - 2011-2012. What a good looking group! Wednesday, March 28, 2012. Day 129: Wednesday, 3/28. Something else you might want to be doing at home is practicing those math facts. While some of the kids are headed in the right direction toward our "60 in 3" goal, some of us have plateaued a bit and haven't made significant progress in a while. Remember, two or three facts a night is plenty; you don't have to practice 60 facts every night! Monday, March 26, 2012. Day 127: Monday 3/26. We're working on ...

I hope everyone had an enjoyable Thanksgiving. This week in language arts, we have a lot on our plate. We'll be working with consonant blends ( sl. A Harbor Seal Pup Grows Up. Lobby D...

Room 18 - 2011-2012. What a good looking group! Monday, April 30, 2012. Day 146: Monday, 4/30. Bout, pizz a. In math, we've been working a lot on measurement and discussing the differences between length, capacity, and weight measurement. Confusing to kids is the difference between tools and units. For example, a yard stick is a tool, while a yard is a unit. A measuring cup is a tool, and cup is a unit. (Very tricky! Wednesday, April 25, 2012. Day 143: Wednesday, 4/25. Pushing Up the Sky.

How many syllables in the word carnivore? What does preen mean? What is a topic sentence? Where is it usually found? What is a clincher? Monday, February 27, 2012. Next ...

Room 18 - 2011-2012. What a good looking group! Thursday, June 14, 2012. Day 178: Thursday, 6/14. To the Parents of Room 18,. I'd also like to thank you for the gifts, tokens of appreciation, and kind words as we wrap up the year.

All my best, and wishing you a wonderful summer,. Monday, June 11, 2012. Day 175: Monday, 6/11. Facts to learn about. We'...
