This morning on March 25, 2009, we did our 52^nd logic links puzzle.  A logic links puzzle is, a puzzle where you use 9 different colored dots, and it gives you clues where to put the dots on the paper.  After the puzzle, we read altogether, a scripture reading in page 154 in our religion book.  The reading was about the 12 apostles.  Then Ms. Jensen taught us a trick on how to remember the 12 apostles.  

It is, B-A-P-T-I-S-M-J.  B is for St. Bartholomew (a.k.a. Nathaniel).  A is for St. Andrew.  P is for St. Peter and Phillip.  T is for St. Thomas and Thaddeus (first name is Jude).  I am for Iscariot (first name is Judas, the one that betrayed Jesus). S is for St. Simon.  M is for St. Matthew and Matthias.  J is for St. John, James the lesser, and James the Greater.  After the acrostic trick we went to the front of our church to pray the whole rosary. 

We prayed the sorrowful mysteries.  After we prayed the rosary we went back to our classroom and continued our invention.  My group is making a movie robot.  After we started our inventions we went to recess.

            At recess I played basketball with Josh and Selena.  After recess we did our math power –up in our math workbook on page 88.  Then we learned about fractions, ratios, and proportions.  After Lesson 88, we did the Unit 2 review in our Language Arts books on pages 157-158.  It is about linking main, helping verbs, verb phrases, contractions, and forms of be.  After that we went out to lunch.

            At lunch I ate a lunchables.  We played basketball with Josh and Selena again.  We also played soccer with a lot of kids.  After lunch we had technology class with Mr. Huy and Mr. Pizzota.  We had to take a quiz about everything we learned in technology class.  After we were done with the quiz, Mr. Pezzotta showed everyone how to edit our movies.  

My group’s movie is on the Declaration of Independence.  So, after he showed us how to edit, we started to edit.  Our group got 40 seconds of footage done.  After technology, we worked on our western states.  They are: Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, Nevada, Montana, Colorado, Arizona, Utah, Hawaii, Wyoming, and New Mexico.  After we did that we packed up and went home.  That was a hot day because it was like 85 degrees.
