This is today's science vocabulary pre-assessment. We are continuing to work on our Animal Adaptations unit. Students will be choosing an animal to create a multimedia presentation on using Book Creator. Ask your child what he/she thinks might be a good wild animal choice for them.

Thanks so much for all the delicious treats you sent in today. We had a great Cube Party. Although the weather didn't cooperate, we had an  indoor game extravaganza! Great work, kids! 

Tomorrow (Friday) we will be having a Cube Party. These happen when the class has earned all 20 cubes through hard work, responsibility, kindness and general AWESOMENESS! If you would like to send in something (cupcakes, fruit, juice) for the class it would be greatly appreciated. Please do not feel obligated. We only need a few items. Thanks in advance. 

This week's Kid of the Week is Mic.

Here is what his friends had to say about him:

"Mic loves Pete the Cat books."

"He is a really good reader."

"Mic is Kind."

I hope everyone enjoyed the four day weekend. The class seems well rested and ready to rumble. Here is a pic of Journal time today.

 

 A HUGE "shout out" to Dean, Sebastian, Molly, and Kelly for letting us crash their farm. We had an awesome time. We saw a menagerie of animals, tasted some world class cheese and yogurt, and got a great farm tour. It was a beautiful day and I was reminded what a special place the von Trapp Farm is. Thanks again for your hospitality. Thanks also to Eileen and Jen S. for driving and helping out. Enjoy the pics.
