Short Week

 This is a busy, short week for us!  We are doing some end of the quarter testing in math and reading.  We learned about making compliments yesterday with Heidi Klum and Elmo.  Compliments are important when we are working with our writing partners.  When we compliment our partner for something they are doing well, they may do it more often!  Our lesson about compliments must have been especially memorable because today when a repairman came to fix our Promethean Board, he was rewarded with many compliments such as "you're a genius" and "you're brilliant", and of course many thank-yous.  
Today in music we sang and did a partner dance.  We worked hard, listened to Mrs. Vinson, and earned 20 points for having a really great class!
