Steps in a Process

Party Money ($5) is nearly all collected for our class.  If you still have not yet paid, please do your best to send this money to school so that our room moms and dads will have funds to plan our upcoming Fall and Winter parties.  We appreciate their help very much.  

Today we worked on reviewing for our Spelling Unit 7 test tomorrow and completed practice workbook pages 29-30.  We made an "ER" list of spelling words that end in -er (ladder, letter, soccer).
We are also working to learn "Steps in a Process." We worked with a partner to complete a "Steps in a Process" direction poster.  Students have been offered a challenge (Bonus) assignment to present a short "Steps in a Process" recipe to the class on Friday.  This helps with fluency and presentation, as well as keeping events in sequence.  Here's a "Cooking for Kids" video that can help to show how steps in a process are important:

Here's another "Steps in a Process" idea.  This shows how to draw a haunted house.
