Today the students began their day with Ignite! They were all very happy to be back at school after the long weekend doing their favorite morning activities.

We spent a chunk of time this morning talking about our new seating plan and the new addition to the classroom! We have started to use quiet critters!
These little critters sit at the students desk when they are working quietly. They cannot be touched and their are 18 different critters to see! The students were able to name them and write some descriptions for each quiet critter!
They were a huge hit!


After we wrote about our critters the students did their number of the week before lunch.

When we returned from lunch we went to check on a science experiment from the morning!
We placed some water in an ice cube and took it to the freezer. The water was left in the freezer for 3 hours before we checked it again. When we returned the water had changed states and was now a solid...ICE! We recorded our findings and went to recess. Students then played a game in which that had to write and represent different numbers from 1-100 on a chart. Tomorrow we will be re-practicing this skill but over several examples!

Have a great evening everyone!
