Happy Valentine's Day week. The kids are very excited about their projects and our party tomorrow. I am totally impressed with the beautiful boxes that were brought in today. Just a reminder that the party will be Tuesday afternoon from about 2:15-3:00. Students can exchange Valentines with classmates as long as they have brought one for everyone.
There is a YAC this Friday for 4th graders. The students have off school on Monday the 20th. Open house is on Tuesday evening and the book fair will be running all next week.
In math this week, we will be reviewing metric and customary measurements as well as area and perimeter. The kids will be participating in a little measurement Olympics competition in class on Friday. This was a short unit on measurement, so the test will already be coming up next Wednesday, the 22.
Today in social studies, we went on a virtual field trip to a canoe museum in Canada. We skyped with museum guides and got to see many artifacts from the fur trade era. The kids were able to respond and ask questions. It was a great learning experience!
In reading, the students are working in small groups to use a variety of nonfiction resources to learn about different extreme weather topics. They will teach the rest of the class about their topic later this week.
The students finished their persuasive essays in writing last week. We are spending this week working on some fun poetry!
Last week was spirit week. Here are a few pictures.
