Today was our field trip! Thanks to all the parents that were able to join us on the long walk over to the Rhododendron Gardens! We could not do it with out you. This trip kicked off our new science unit on Habitats. More to come on the field trip details next week!
Report cards go home this Friday. Please let me know if you have any questions about report cards and progress notes (if your child gets them). Your students have been working so hard this past quarter in all subjects! It has been so much fun seeing their growth in math, writing and reading while doing formal assessments the past few weeks.
In science we have started our new unit on habitats. This week, we have discussed what a habitat is and focusing on animals. Ms. Cyndi has been leading discussions about various animals and their specific needs. The students are enjoying brainstorming ideas!
Our artist in residence, Gina, will be joining our class again on Thursday. We are hoping to get our selves ready for Art Night in the next few weeks. Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in helping with Art Night! We would love some volunteers on the calendar (please contact me).
On Friday we will begin work with Oregon’s Children’s Theater. They will be leading a workshop called: Loud and Clear, which will focus on public speaking skills and theater play. I am super excited for this experience brought to us from Right Brain Initiative.
