Snow Delay....Spring Break?????

Another 2 hour late start...due to snow.  Feels like we should be getting ready for Winter Break, not Spring.  Anyhow, today we finished our Wizard of Oz unit with Emerald City Day.  We all wore green and only used green pencils, crayons, or markers to do our work:-)  We finished the day with green ice cream sundaes. 

Wednesday we did some color mixing.  Kids are great....all we did was mix colored water and they thought it was the coolest trick they had seen:-)  

Our Mixing Observations

Then we had two bags of skittles and graphed the rainbow.  We counted them out, compared the two amounts, and made math story problems and number sentences.

Today we also sent report cards home.  I really like to be able to go over it with students before they show it to their parents.  The 2 hour delay almost made that impossible, but I fit them all in.  I give the report card to the student.  Show them what scores to be looking at and what they mean and then we share our opinions and I read the comments to them (if they can't on their own).  Then I still dread the potential phone calls....hopefully spring break starting today will keep them to a minimum.  What do you all do with
the report card situation?

Happy Thursday,
