Week of February 29th

The students had a great time on all of their field trips. They behaved very well and I was impressed how they listened and followed along the play ” Henry and Mudge”. We are working hard on all of our lessons and trying our very best. Thanks again for a great group of students

Week of January 25th

The students worked hard on identifying the three properties of matter.  It was fun doing our Science Experiment.  We watched a solid melt into a liquid and then start to form condensation a form of a gas.  Then we made root beer floats and watched how the ice cream formed a vapor or bubble when the root beer soda was poured over the ice cream.  The three properties of matter are so fun.

The students are doing well on their spelling test.  Please sure to work with them at home.  Also I hope everyone is going on MYON.com for extra fun reading.  Each month I will try to upload books that go with our monthly theme.

On Friday, February 5th there will be a Spaghetti Dinner at the Good Shepherd United Methodist Church.  The proceeds go to help raise money for our “Blessings in a Backpack”  Dinner will be served from5pm to 7:30pm.

Have a great and restful weekend.

The students were excited to be back and tell all about their Winter Break.  As fifth graders we jumped right into our school work with now 6 spelling words.  Today was a practice test and I am proud to say that 4 students got a 100% and 1 student wrote the words from memory.  Way to go!!!!!  If you have not done so please fill out the field trip form and return to me Monday.  As you know we will be going to Life Town and the Leon’s for lunch.  This is happening on January 15th.  I am looking forward to a great time.  Have a wonderful weekend.
