State Capitals Review packet due Friday. 

It was great to come together again this morning after such a long weekend! We started the day off with some housekeeping-- new table seats, circle spots, and cubby cleaning.

Math: Today's math kicked off with a version of "What Time is it Mr. Fox?" game out on the basketball courts. We wanted to take advantage of the beautiful weather and get some active time in before jumping into factors! When we reconvened in the classroom we worked on finding the factors of 100, 200, and 300. Many students figured out the factor patterns and quickly breezed through 100, 200, and 300.

Students split in half during Writer's Workshop-- half the group worked with the computers on finishing up their stories and the other half worked on a new Words Their Way sort. After about 45 minutes the groups switched!

We're looking forward to taking advantage of Election Day tomorrow and will take the opportunity to talk about a few things surrounding this historical day!
