In the morning we lined up and went to class. We took out our supplies our from our backpacks. Then we placed our backpacks in room 12. We went to class and got our AR folder to read for 30 minutes. We also got are chrome books from Derek or Isabella, and waited for Iori and Savannah to stamp our agendas to show we read for homework.
Once that was done we went to E.L.D. In our class we worked on our science article. We needed to take our notes and type our paragraphs with our partners using Google Drive. After that we went back to class.
Once in class, we lined up to go outside for P.E. We ran 3 laps without walking. We played a game. In groups of 5, 4 students stand on the corners of the 4-square. The last student stands in the middle of the square and tries to get one of the corners. The students on the corners try to run quickly to other corners before the person in the middle takes their spot.
After P.E. we went inside the classroom. We take care of our personal needs. We go to the restroom to wash up and put on deodorant. Some girls put on their bodyspray. We also drink water and rest for a few minutes.
Once we returned, we went to our classroom website. We go to our Blog Central page to answer the day’s question. When we finish answering the post, we respond to past blog responses.
Next we went to recess. For 15 minutes, students play various sports. Most students play soccer, while others play handball or basketball. Very few play on the jungle gym or the swings.
Once in class, Mrs. Citizen instructed us to take out our five questions we wrote for homework. We had to create 5 questions to use during our Skyping session. We shared within our group and chose the top 4 questions. We shared with the class, while Mrs. Citizen wrote them on chart paper.
After that Mrs. Grotts class came in so we could help read with them. We helped the 2nd grader choose the right book within their reading range. When they finished reading, they took a test on the chrome book using their quiz number.
Once the 15 minutes was finished, we prepared for our Skype session. We reviewed our questions to video chat with a class. The class had to find out where our school was located by asking questions. Then we tried to figure out where they were by asking them questions. We asked 5 questions each before we figured it out. Their class was in Appalachian, Virginia.
When we were finish, we went on Google Drive to type our thoughts, what we learned and questions we still had for the Virginian class.
Before we knew it, it was time for lunch. We lined up and walked to the cafeteria.
When lunch was finished, it was our Music Block. Students went to guitar, percussion, or recorder. Each class is learning different songs.
Once we got out of class we got our backpacks. We copied our homework in our agenda. Finally we went to home.
