Today a great day we had a shoe-less day, because of our behavior yesterday.  They were talkative, but we managed to complete all activities. We began our day off with reading the story Gingerbread Friends by, Jan Brett.  We thought it was excellent how she is taking a popular story and changing the elements to create a whole new story line.  We even discussed writing our own versions in our writing because we our study mentors as a writer.  We are looking at published authors and looking at the books in the eyes of a writer.  We are trying to write our stories and do as they did.  We have discovered many new elements in our writing.  During math we started regrouping with two and three digit numbers using the computation addition.  Please ask them to model what we are learning.  They will also bring home a CGI problem tomorrow.  Then finally we headed to the library to check out new books.

Top Banana is Kash

We learned he has a brother who is graduating High School this year and will be attending Texas Tech, YEEHAW!!  I am proud to announce I love this. His brother was in my first class when I came to Gattis nine years ago.  We also heard from Kash that he loves to play with his dog Lance.  His dog Lance is three in a half, "Which is about twenty-two in Dogie years,"Kash stated.  We discovered at Christmas he took a picture with his family and had a great time opening his presents and he wished the break could have lasted longer.  I have to agree with Kash it did go by quick.
