Roving Reporter: Anusheh

 Hi! I am Nushi (Anusheh), and I am your Roving Reporter for October 25, 2011.
  
   Today was the second day of our new Warmup Packets, they have improved by switching our old Language Arts to a different program.We did The Pledge of Alegience, then Mr. McMurray told us what would be on our day's agenda.
   
   We corrected our math homework from the night before, and after jumped into comparing and ordering fractions in our math notebooks. A new skill we learned today is cross multiplication to compare fractions. We had a little more practice with our new ability with ten problems on the same lesson, but most of the class got around doing more if not all of the exercises.
  
   We looked over our Reading Comprehension homework that was assigned the day before

   After Snack Recess we listened to the inspiring fight for freedom of When Washington Crossed the Delaware. The sound came from the T.V. as we read along with it in our reading books. We had many discussions on the vocabulary words, about how the people felt, and how the fight was.

   As the first group left for computers, the others wrote their homework down in our Binder Reminder. Our assignments were the Biweekly Assessment lesson 6\7, in our hard back math books 165 set E, and last was our weekly spelling packet. Then we headed off to lunch.

   Following Lunch Recess came us getting our explore packet. Each person got a book from the school library on their own chosen explorer.Some students were moved to other explorers, due to limited books on certain people. We learned what to do for our reports and changed the due dates.

   At The Mac Lab in the second group we went to pearsonsuccess.net, and we worked on weather. The site had a glitch of repeating assignments, but a student figured out how to finish. Next, we went to thinkcentral.com and read a story called The Attack of The Turtle. This story was about the first submarine trying to bomb Britain ships, but doesn't succeed. After was a math game with exponents. If you completed all the assignments you could do a logic or math game.

  Then we headed to Choir and did the Halloween Hand Jive! We warmed up with the "poor bird" song. Then, went to "Have You Seen the Ghost of Tom", learned a few more presidents for the "President Song", and ended with "The Halloween Hand Jive". Many kids got to try the vampire part, but our choir teacher chose the first person who did it.

  As the dismissal bell rang we were excused from Choir, and went home.

  That's the day and you heard it strait from me Nushi your Roving Reporter for room 16 on October 25,2011
