October 3, 2005 - Groucho Marx's birthday was 10/2; Peanuts comic strip appeared for the first time, 1950.

            Our historian wrote this today:   Today we had science and we learned how to make line

graphs. We also had music and we learned some new tropical instruments. One of the drum

tops was made of snakeskin! In social studies, we listed many jobs that native Americans had.

We also finally got jobs!  Today was exciting.

            From Ms. Moline:  In Reading Workshop today, students became acquainted with some

of the award-winning books that we have in our own classroom library. Most of them were

immediately snatched up by students, who know they need one to read & participate in

an  upcoming Book Report. The first Book Report project will be done mostly in class as a guide to the time

when they will complete them at home later.
