We are currently working through Module 4 in Math. We will continue Module 4 after break, starting with Lesson 24 on Feb. 24th and completing one lesson per school day. Our date for the Module 4 Assessment is March 10…this is unless we have snow days, ice days, cold days, hot lava days, alien invasion days or any other event that prevents us from having school.
We had a National Blue Ribbon School celebration on Monday Fe. 10th. Here is a link to the video of our celebration.
The Winter Break Reading Challenge paper is coming home today. It is due on Feb. 24th. Students were given a hard copy today.
Today we had lots of fun while we reviewed for our social studies test by playing Colonial Jeopardy!
Green group are the Winners!
On Monday Lindbergh students and staff were joined by many district, city and state dignitaries to celebrate our Blue Ribbon School Award!!
As a part of our science unit students were given materials and asked to build an aquifer to get underground fresh water to the surface.
Today students were given 20 minutes of class time to work on ZEARN. Some were catching up and some were working ahead. ZEARN is and important part of our math program. It can be accessed from home and has videos and activities in keeping with our current math lesson. You can check on your student’s progress by looking at their account. Each day the planner states the lesson which should be done that day on ZEARN.
If you are not seeing these in your student’s planner ask them about it. The planners are filled out each day and contain lots of important classroom information. Students are given time each day to fill in their planner. Please reference the picture below for a sample of what my planner looks like each day.
Thanks to the PTA for the gift certificate to the Book Fair! We have some great new books for our classroom library! 🙂
A big thank you to Mrs. LeFranc and Mrs. Lamb for providing all our science materials for our activity! I will be sure to post pictures of the students doing our aquifer activity on Monday!
Candy grams are due tomorrow.
Don’t forget to bring your donation of bags for the Student Lighthouse Project! Remember Marshall’s has great bags for $1!!
Please see list below for next week’s activities.
