congrats to all

First I would like to say I am proud of my whole class for all of them completing a third of the extended standards in the classroom.

The class is continuing their studies on fables and fairy tales for characterization, plot, setting, prediction and other related skills. In math the class is working on being able to read charts and graphs.


For Science we just finished up our unit on the solar system and starting some life science. this unit we will be sticking with for a while as we study the different biomes and ecosystems in our world.

For social studies and lifeskills we are starting to work on some basic map reading skills. I want to remind all the readers of this blog that the system has a teacher inservice day on Oct. 5th, and our school's homecoming game is Oct. 6th with the homecoming parade and Dance on Oct. 9th.

For week of September 7 through 11

Well it's been a short bit since the class blog last got updated, and I apologize for that but I was sick and then had meetings after that. Well so far we have been working towards place value and addition for 2 digit and more numbers.

I hope everyone enjoyed their Labor Day weekend. This week we start working towards learning about the planets and our solar system. The class will start building their own solar system on Thursday and Friday for an art project. This means you might want to have some extra shirts and things so they do not get messed up with paint on Thursday or dyes on Friday.

Unfortunately I have a required state training this Thursday so a substitute will be in my room along with the paraprofessional. But the art experiment for the class will be making soap based 3D model planets and will have to label them as well.

Well remember if you have questions I am always free to answer them.
