Tuesday

Howdy all, and thanks for checking in. We are deep into our study of the Titanic sinking this week, and it is weird to know that we are creeping up on the 100 year anniversary of the tragedy. The kids have been fascinated by the events and how, as a country, we celebrate the anniversaries of tragedies (i.e 9-11). You have a compassionate bunch of children.

We have begun our aquarium animal writings, and the kids are experimenting with introductions right now. Before we dive into the body paragraphs, they are attempting to structure an opening that lures in the reader by sharing what they think a day in the life of their animal might resemble.

Tonight, the kids are responsible for the following:

- math 4.2
- reading practice book pages 41 & 42
- continue experimenting with introductory paragraph

Respectfully, Mr. Bryant
