GeoSpace Program - Thanks Volunteers!
We would like to thank Mrs. Casey, Mrs. Brackett, and Mrs. Gonzales for helping with our GeoSpace program. It really helped to have several sets of extra hands in creating our spaces.
Spring Open House and Book Fair Tidbits
I enjoyed seeing so many families at our Spring Open House. We had been working diligently on several projects to share with you that evening, and it was wonderful to receive such positive feedback about them! A special thanks to the families of Brad, Maya, Jared, and Eva for generously donating gift certificates towards the purchase of books for our classroom library. Those new titles will be on the shelves soon!
Earth Day Celebration
Due to our early dismissal on Thursday, we will be celebrating Earth Day on Friday, April 23. Students might choose to wear their Earth Day t-shirts or pack a "no-trash" lunch to celebrate this special day.
Subject Update:
- Spelling - Lesson 30 focuses on words ending with -or.
- English - The students will continue to learn about verbs. We will apply spelling rules to help us form the present and past tenses, and use the helping verb "will" to write verbs in the future tense.
- Reading - We will continue to reinforce the reading strategies taught throughout the year as we begin the novel, CRASH, by Jerry Spinelli.
- Science - The students will review about the Earth's oceans to prepare for the Chapter 12 Test scheduled for Wednesday, April 21!
- Social Studies - The next lesson will discuss how other nations helped the Americans in their fight against the British. We will also discover how this war finally came to an end.
- Mrs. Strong's Math Class - The students will learn about customary and metric units for measuring temperature. A test over Chapter 22 is scheduled for Thursday, April 22!
