Today was another fun filled day of learning, we made it through everything. Today we started off with reading and continued learning how to use our main idea to help recall details in our chapter books.  Then we had our visitor Mrs. Doyle come share another special book with our class.  She lead a discussion on sensory writing threw poetry.  This tied perfectly to what Ms. Wolfan taught us in writing, our sensory writing chart.  We practiced that strategy in our writing notebooks and will begin drafting our compositions.  Then we moved into math and completed our flip book on how to make a dollar.  Have the students explain all the ways to make a dollar?  Finally we closed down our day with the start of our island maker activity.
