Dance Performances

The kids performed their dances today in PE class and did an amazing job! It was really fun to see all of their hard work come together in a final performance.

We’ve had a Wonderful Week!

IMG_2547IMG_2539 IMG_2540 (1) IMG_2542 IMG_2543 IMG_2544 (1) IMG_2545We started the week with a fun lesson on engineering  and light with our friends from CES.  Brendan, Ethan, and Nick are all juniors at CES and are participating in the UVM TRY for the environment program (Teens  Reaching Youth). They will join us for 6 lessons to teach students about a variety of environmental lessons. They did an incredible job and we are all excited to have them back in the classroom next week. Be sure to talk to your child about their lessons.

 

Homework Changes

You may have noticed that I started to send a few paper copies of math homework. Students are still expected to read at least four nights a week for 20 minutes. They should also complete math at least four nights a week.  If there are four pages of work, that is all I expect them to do. They can ALWAYS use the computer as well, but are expected to turn in those pages on Friday. If there are three sheets, they should  complete those as well as one night of computer work. I hope this clears things up.

Computer Programs

Students can use any of the math programs on the MBS webpage or my blog, but some are better than others. The three that will be most helpful for homework are Xtramath, Dreambox and ConnectEd. They should have their log in information in their planners. If not, please contact me and I will be sure they bring them home.

Field Trip Correction & Updates

The trip to the Flynn is FRIDAY, April 15th. I mistakenly wrote Wednesday on the permission slip. If you would like to be entered into the lottery, please send me an email or note by Monday 3/7.  I will let you know that afternoon if your name was chosen.

Kiddos brought home their unit 6 math letter today. This will let you know what we are working on in the math curriculum. You can also visit http://connected.mcgraw-hill.com/connected/login.do to see each math lesson. This is a great resource for students to do their online math homework.

We are working on opinion writing, literary nonfiction  and will start learning about the Human Body as well. If you ever want to come in to volunteer or to share an area of expertise, please feel free to contact me. Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy March Families!

It was wonderful getting to meet with all of you this week for parent conferences! If you were unable to come to a conference, please contact me to re-schedule. The students met their class goal  today. They voted and will be watching  Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory tomorrow as a class to celebrate. Please sign the note in their planners tonight or send me an email. We will not be having a class snack, but feel free to send your child with an extra snack for the movie. We will set our new goal tomorrow and I will be sure to let you know what we’re working on.  Students also brought home a permission slip for our Flynn field trip and new book orders for March. These are all due next Friday 3/11. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me. It’s great to be back!
