Day 74 (Tuesday, December 21) was more like a normal day. Or as normal as it can be when you are in school those last few days before Christmas. We began our Grinch writing pieces after reading the story aloud. The students have come up with some really interesting letters. Once the letters are written, the students colored in a cover sheet with the Grinch looking his grinchiest. (FYI: If you plan to do this in the future, most of the coloring pages online have the Jim Carey version of the Grinch, so you may need to search a while if you want the original. I am somewhat of a purist, so I searched. Unfortunately, the site I got my sheet from is no longer permitted to offer and Dr. Seuss characters due to copyright/licensing issues. Or, if you have an artistic side, you may want to give drawing him a go.)
My students also wrapped up their science quiz on weather and played some math games, in addition to the usual stuff for the day (journal, daily edit, independent reading time, riddle of the day, etc.) I was pretty impressed with their focus.
Day 75 was a different story. Read on!
