Classroom News

We have been keeping busy these past few weeks.  During Discovery block, we have started our study of weather.  Students have been learning how to use a thermometer to figure out the temperature and we have been outside making observations about clouds and precipitation.  We will be looking for patterns as we record our data and observations throughout this unit to help us start making our own weather forecasts.

On Thursday, we started working with Arlyn on our Lego Robotics projects!  Students worked in teams to build their first robots, the dancing birds.

It was wonderful to talk with families at conferences.  Thank you to everyone for meeting with me to discuss your child's progress.

Students should start coming to school prepared for colder outdoor weather.  Please help your child to remember his/her winter jacket, snow pants (when needed), gloves/mittens, and hat.

It is also important for students to have indoor shoes.  We really love to have our floor and rug stay clean and dry, especially since we like to spread out to read and write during literacy times.
