Reading Week: Monday Our Favorite Characters Came to School

Twelve characters from current favorite books came to life today to kick off our Reading Week. Ask a student in our class who was who.

What We're Up To This Week

We're learning new math related games. Aidan S. has been particularly helpful.

It's Reading Week. Please send in a towel to sit upon for Wednesday's outdoor read. And we're still collecting books for Friday's book sale.

Also on Friday between 9:35 and 10:50 we will be showcasing the technology applications to our Colonial American Foods project. So come by the computer lab then and see all the movies, websites, animations, glogsters etc. Students will be viewing each others at this time but all friends of our class are invited.

We have a new word list from the last chapters in Phantom Tollbooth. The assessment is the end of next week.

We have will have a math box quiz for the next two Fridays.

Demolition Done, Mostly

Just before car line we returned to what used to be Crisp Gym to see what's left. Here the girls peak in. The boys found other viewing spots.

Oldie Goldie & Relay 4 Life

Our "Oldie Goldie" bin is empty so far. The used book sale is next week. Please see if you have any books to contribute. Our Relay for Life jar is filling with children's contributions. Each gets a new link on our chain to be displayed at the event on March 25th.

Deconstructing Crisp Gym

Thomas McM. drew this picture from memory after he and his class observed the demolition site this morning. We hope to look in and write about the construction site once a week.

Test Schedule Revised

The Math Unit 7 test is now Friday not tomorrow. All students are preparing a study guide.

The Phantom Tollbooth quiz 13 to 15 is now next Tuesday. The PT vocab/spelling quiz is still this Friday.
