Lots of excitement today!  We started our day with an Eid story called Amira's Picture Day, by Reem Faruqi.  This is a beautiful book about a little girl's struggle with missing picture day at school and not attending school to go to an Eid celebration.  Ask me to tell you what happens!  The little girl in the story makes goody bags for Eid, just like one of our students did for the children in her class.  I asked the children to wait until after school to open their goody bags.  They were so patient!
We went to see two short plays the fifth grade wrote and performed.  The children did a great job listening and being respectful, and the plays were a lot of fun!
We took a big test for Benchmark today on the computers.  The kids did a great job listening and answering comprehension questions.
We had time for play and working on the Chromebooks, while I finished up reading with the children.  They each had to read a decodable text and answer a couple questions.  They did a great job with the test.  The thing I was most excited to hear was that they are reading more fluently.  

Have a nice evening!
