There’s just 3 weeks to go! This class has worked very hard all year, and come so far. They can be well proud of their accomplishments!
NOTE: This is the last week of reading, math, and math facts homework! Thank you for your help establishing routines with your child this year. It was extremely helpful!
Field Day is here! This Thursday marks the big event. Students will participate in their choice of a variety of games designed to engage and challenge them physically and mentally. They’ll compete against others to do their personal best, and work with partners and teams to exercise skills of teamwork and sportsmanship. To make the day run smoothly, we need your help:
1. Please send your child in a red shirt OR Hawaiian shirt of any kind that day.
2. Sneakers are a must: no flip-flops or sandals.
3. Sunscreen must be applied at home, not at school.
4. Well-fitting hats (e.g. baseball caps vs. big sun hats) and Hawaiian accessories are welcome.
5. Dress students for comfort: they will be very physically active and hot, and a few games involve water so expect a little wetness.
6. Please be sure your child’s name is on hisorher water bottle. There will be over 100 of them out there!
Our latest blog posts show what students have learned about data and graphing. After designing a survey to be answered by classmates, kids collected data and created picture graphs and bar graphs to represent the information. Then they interpreted the graphs in writing on their blogs, and challenged their readers with a question about the information–wow! As always, students may view blogs from home but should not change or post anything on there.
Floral Goes Green was a blast! Students all over the school displayed projects that reflected their learning about plastic’s impact on the planet, and spent the day learning from each other. Students in our class were on-hand near the games they created to explain and share with kids from all grades. Then we visited other rooms to learn about repurposing t-shirts, what to about bee decline, and much more. Kudos to them on the great job they did!
