We re-read Zoom! Zoom! I'm Off to the Moon! and then reviewed action words. Many of the action words in the book had the ing ending, so it was a great teaching opportunity. Afterward, students made adorable space helmets, which I hung in the hallway--sorry kids, they were too cute not to share! Nick and Courtney read a non-fiction book about the moon in their reading group.

After lunch, students ate birthday cake-flavored ice cream cups for their "good behavior celebration." Since it's Izaak's VIP week, he got to choose the Scholastic video that we watched while we ate. He chose a Harold and the Purple Crayon video.
