I wanted to give special thanks to Lydia's mother, who was nice enough to come into our classroom today. Ms. Powell, who is a published author, came into room 312 to work with the students on their personal narrative stories. The children were engaged in the lesson and did some really nice work. As we approach the end of the first bend in our personal narrative section, students continue to be very productive.

In math class, we started a lesson on numerical expressions. We also compared expressions using visual models.

In social studies, we used our giant inflatable globe to help us better understand the hemispheres. Students worked together to identify countries in all four of the hemispheres.
