Make an Inference

Using a poem students were able to read between the lines to determine the author's meaning. The students are getting pretty good at making an inference.

Becoming the Best Me

On Friday Mrs. Thomas came back and worked with our class on goal setting. Using our next habit "Begin with the end in Mind" she had the students set a goal and write ways they will try to attain that goal.  They are keeping their goals in their binders so we can refer to them often.  Thanks to Mrs. George (Emma's mom) for helping too!

Today we helped our first grade buddies log in to the computers and access their class blog. The fourth graders were very patient teachers. They really helped their buddies!

Tools if the Mind

Today the awesome Cheri Thomas (Sydney's mom) came and talked with us about the tools of the mind. We learned about our senses and how we have a sixth sense of thinking. We learned about different ways to focus our attention and she even tied it into the Seven Habits. Next time she comes we will be doing some personal goal setting. It was great!
