High Five Fast Friday

Dear Realers,

   A teacher named Mrs. Blahblah, had to get donuts for her class.  She was supposed to be at school at 8:00, however because she got donuts for her class she arrived at 8:15.  How late was Mrs. Blahblah to school?

Love,
Mrs. Miesner

   I am missing some commas.  Yikes!  There must be a thief in the room.  I bet it's Rylee.  Can you help and tell me where the commas go?

Dear Realers,

   This weekend I went to visit family.  It was funny because I talked about you a lot with them and shared all the fun stuff we do at JTSD.  I'm glad to be back with you today.  We have fun stuff planned this week.  I will be looking for a volunteer today to help me decide a fun thing to bring for tomorrow.  Hmmm! Who will it be?

Love, 
Mrs. Miesner

Dear Realers,

    Today is going to be a jam packed day.  We've got to be on our very best behavior for the Bank trip and make sure to practice politely thanking them for all they've done for us.

    Here is a daily bonus.  Today in my gym class I had to do 4 different exercises at 2 minutes each exercise.  How many minutes is that total?

    Love,
Mrs. Miesner

Dear Realers,

   There are so many questions that I think of while I am away from you.  Last night I was speaking with an engineer and he used a simile to describe an event.  So cool to hear. 
   For the bonus today, can you write a simile?

Love,
Mrs. Miesner

High Five Fast Friday

Dear Realers,

   I greatly missed you and told funny stories about you to my family.  I'm glad we get to learn together today.

   By the way, I drove by some red colored soil today.  A company was doing some construction work and had pulled up the soil.  What do you think was in the soil to make it that red color?

Love,
Mrs. Miesner

Marvelous Monday

Dear Realers,

   On Friday I went to the Discovery Center.  I actually laid on the bed of nails.  It didn't hurt though.  Why do you think it didn't hurt? Write down you what you think.  Science is cool!

Dear Realers,

   I'm so impressed with your kindness towards each other.  Yesterday, Erika cleaned more than she was supposed to.  Yesterday, someone gave up their headphones for someone else.  Yesterday, the whole class walked nicely down to the 5th graders and led without me.  This is a class that can run themselves.  Way to go!

Love,
Mrs. Miesner

Dear Realers,

  What a beautiful day.  I have recess duty and it's only 2nd grade, so we need to save that extra time.  Devin will be timing us.  

  If recess starts at 12:45pm and we get 10 extra minutes, what time will we go out?

  That is my bonus question for today.  :)

Love you guys!

Mrs. Miesner

Marvelous Monday

Dear Realers,

   It's going to be a great week.  I have a lot planned for us to do.  Today you'll be experimenting with rocks to answer some of your questions that you've had.  I also have animal crackers for you to eat too.  I wonder why?  Today I do have a bonus question.  See if you can answer 23,489 - 11, 293.  You are an amazing class.  I can't wait to learn with you.


Love,
Mrs. Miesner

High Five Fast Friday

Dear Realers,

   Wow!  What a beautiful day!  It's fast Friday.  We will be running outside and recording our run.  I can't wait to see what you will do.  You are really improving.  My favorite part is improving my runs even if it's only a second better.   

   Do your best today.  It's going to be a great day!

Love, Mrs. Miesner
