Hi Parents!

Here is what we did today!

We did Fundations. We learned all of our digraphs. We practiced our big cards. We did our magnet boards. Mrs. Hotchkiss told us a word and we had to build the word with the digraph in it. (Yahna)

We did writing and Daily 5 together. We got to do 2 choices. We are going to do 1 after closing meeting and snack. (Kiernan and Brendan)

We had library. We checked out our books in the morning because there was an activity in the library. Fifth graders facetimed a book author. All of our library time was computers. (Elizabeth)

We had counselor. We talked about what we wanted to be when we grow up. We got to dress people on the Smartboard. (Abigail)

We did math. We played 5 in a Row. We learned how to play it. Mrs. Hotchkiss taught us how to play. It was really fun. We had to play 5 in a row 2 times and then we could play blackout. (Eshan)

We had read aloud. We read a book called The Moon. We learned a lot about the moon. How the moon shines is actually the sun shining on the moon. We learned that the moon looks huge because the moon is the closest planet next to us. (Sophia)

Instead of lunch before counselor we had it after. (Evie)

We did our poem. (Sophia and Yahna)

Please make sure your child has a snack in their backpack every day!

My son’s temperature spiked again this afternoon so depending on how he does overnight/tomorrow morning there might be a sub again tomorrow. Thanks for understanding!

Here is closing meeting from yesterday…

April 11, 2017

During Writing we drew a picture of what we want to be when we grow up.  This will go in our class book we are writing.  (Kayleigh)

We went on our field trip to the Planetarium at Rock Bridge.  We learned about the stars, the moon and the sun.  (Sophia)

On the field trip the lady had a red light that she used to point out things on the ceiling.  If a spaceship gets too close to the sun it will melt.   (Elizabeth)

We painted a picture of the sun and wrote a sentence about the sun.  (Abigail)

We did Read Aloud and read a book called The Sun.  (Bennett)
