Thank You!

To the world you might be one person, but to one person you might be the world. 

Thank you so much for all the flowers!  What a beautiful bouquet that now sits on my desk!  I truly appreciate your thoughtfulness!              

 

       

Famous American Presentations

We had a productive week with our Famous American research.  Most are finished with their research and have begun typing their paper.  Some were more diligent than others and even typed their final copy.  We will spend a couple more days this week in the computer lab to finish up.  If your child does not get their paper finished then it will be sent home to be completed.

Here is the presentation schedule:

Friday, March 27th - Katie, Kristen, Anna Kate, Madison, Thomas, Ethan

Monday, March 30th - Kara, Spencer, Mason, AJ, Jalisa, Stephane

Tuesday, March 31st - Steven, Patrick, Justin, Aaron, Darius, Shawn

Remember you may dress up like person, bring props, etc. but not required.

Famous American Project

We spent some time researching our Famous American during our computer time this past week.  Many took notes on index cards and some even began typing their paper.  I told the children they could take their note cards home over the weekend to continue working on it.  We will go to the computer lab another 2 times this upcoming week and the following week.   If you feel that your child might not be able to finish before Friday, March 27th by just working on it at school then please feel free to help them at home.   

The children know that they must complete all their paper doll creations at home and that it is due on Friday, March 27th. 

I will send an email either Thursday or Friday letting you know when your child needs to do their report.  I am planning to have 6 present on Friday, another 6 on Monday, and finish up with the last 6 on Tuesday.  (3/27, 3/30, 3/31)

Please email me with any questions or concerns.  Again, thanks for your continued support!

Famous American Project

Friday, March 6th

Please look for the Paper Doll Famous American Project packet in your child's binder today.  Your child needs to choose a famous American to research.  We will begin working on this next week in class, but your child may get a head start over the weekend on choosing their famous American and gathering resources.  I have also scheduled some time in the computer lab so that they may do some research here at school and to type up their final report.  I would like for the paper doll to be completed at home.  If you have any questions or concerns just email me.

COOL CUBE

We are busy learning about Heat and Energy in Science. The children are performing many hands on experiments in class to identify and use the five sources of heat. This unit includes an At-Home Project, The Cool Cube!   Your mission is to create an INSULATED container to keep (or slow down) an ice cube from melting!  The directions were sent home on blue paper Monday.  I have shared drawings and ideas from last year with the children, but if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to email me.  Here are the requirements again.  Download Cool Cube
