Question:what's the most important quality you have for the teachers?
Answer:I think a teachers quality to be able to have teaching skills because they can't come to work and don't have nothing to teach the students. A teacher have an quality to understand a student and to know how to help a student when they need help with their classwork or to do anything that deals with what the class is working on. another is that they should be able to have organize work to give the students when they come to school and is ready to do work and to finish everything .A teacher should have patientence for when a student needs to finish his or her work at least give them some time to finish or give in the work to the teacher.

BIG FOX!!!

As you may know class 820 is doing a lot of writing strategies in E.L.A. One of my favorite writing strategies is BIG FOX!! know you may be thinking what BIG FOX stands for, well every writing strategy has to mean something and so BIG FOX means:


B:bold
I:italics
G:graphics


F:facts
O:opinions
X:summary


that's what big fox means. this writing strategy is a good strategy because you can find bold,italics,graphics,facts, in books magazines etc. in different stuff this why big fox is my favorite strategies!!!

my little story

one afternoon their were two people in my classroom,their was meera and manda.they were in the classroom doing some research on the internet,then suddently meera heard a noise she quickly turned around and there it was,a rat running around the classroom.when manda heard,she was doing some silly stuff with her face like a clown trying to make kids laugh.manda stood up and opened the locker to check if the rat was there.she took out a box filled with candy in it.she was so scared she told meera to take out the candies to see if the rat was there.manda was so scared she thought the rat was going to pop out of the box,but it didn't.it was time for meera to go home so she was making fun of manda and said "have fun with the rats."

NOVEMBER/THANKSGIVING!!!

OMG!!! can you believe that November is here that means that thanksgiving is coming but thanksgiving does not mean that you get to eat mashed potatoes and get to eat apple pie and best of all TURKEY is not for all of that thanksgiving means that you get to spend time with your family and get to talk to then watch home videos or look at old pictures or best of all have quality time with your parents. thanksgiving means that we get to remember the history about the pilgrims and the indians and how first the didn't like each other but the spirit of the love and hunger got then together and thats thanks giving started. We should thank the pilgrims and the indians for starting at tradition and most of all tank our family and GOD for putting food in our plates all the time


this is your girl MARIA saying peace and HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!

Become Your Dream


Hi Class-

I'm sitting with Ms. Rodriguez at a Cosi. I wanted to touch base with you guys because I just got an e-mail that reminded me of you.

A woman named Kaycee, who came to visit several times this year and last, sent out an e-mail with a picture she took while walking home last night. We will spend some time talking about in class on Monday, but I wanted to throw it up on the blog for you to look at this weekend.

I also wanted to touch base with you about your grades. Ms. Miranda and I submitted our grades to Mr. DeCastro last night. So many of you got high 80s and 90s...a true demonstration of your commitment to being the success that lives in our classroom. Comparing these grades to the ones you got only 6 months ago is very impressive. We can NOT wait to share your successes with your parents and guardians at parent/teacher conferences.

Getting back to business:
-9 steps this weekend ( 2 hours and 15 minutes of reading)
-Newsblasts (both sides) www.timeforkids.com is a great resource. The articles are written between 4-6th grade levels. Please write in complete sentences.
-Math reflection on the fire hydrant problem

We'll be taking a predictive state ela test on Monday. And, the top 5 are getting a trip to the upper east side...where we'll have some cold stone! I think I might be more excited than you!! Think about your flavors in advance...Birthday Cake Remix is my absolute favorite!! http://www.coldstonecreamery.com/

xoxo
Ms. S and (Ms. R too)

We're going to take the subway.

Today my class had 2 quizes. One for Math and one for ELA.


The math one was about Exponents standard 8.n.2. The one for ELA was just reading short articles and answering multiple choice questions. The ELA quiz was harder then the math quiz. But I tried my best.



If we have mastery on any of the math quizzes, then Ms. Miranda brings in home made brownies and give one each to the people that got mastery.
