What did we do today?

• This morning in math, the grade threes practiced creating arrays to represent multiplication while the grade fours were at the carpet with Ms. Jones to work with partial products.  Then we had to try some ourselves.  
• Ms. Jones also introduced the "secret student".  Everyday a student's name will be behind the Secret Student poster, and no one knows who!  If they show good student expectations, then their name is revealed and celebrated!  If not, it remains a secret. Today's student was not revealed...
• Today in gym we continued our skipping and hula hooping in groups of three.  
• After recess, in science we worked on finishing our noise pollution posters, as the due date was today.  Some of us came in at lunch to finish our mast"ear"pieces.
• During Daily Five/ language arts, we started to write our spooky stories.  The grade 3's continued to plan theirs while the grade 4s started writing in their journals.
• In Daily Five today, the grade 3s started brainstorming for a spooky story.  The grade 4s finished our plot map for their spooky story.
• Today in music, we listened to Hedwig's Theme by John Williams and we had to answer three questions to that song.  The first one was about the first sound and what it makes you think of.  The second was which instruments did we hear and the last one was what would you change.

Questions:
1. How many students will have their names revealed this year as the Secret Student?
2. Will the Secret Student be revealed tomorrow?
3. Will we do something about hearing for Fresh Air Friday this week?
