Week 29
Posted in Classroom | No Comments »Happy Friday!
Thank you to those parents who came to our class’ science fair! We gave back the average scores between 3 teachers. Total points are out of 40. We used a rubric to score and so I sat down with the class and told them their scores are for practice. Whatever they get they can see where they can improve for next time.
The school wide fundraiser, Frozen, has been cancelled. We however, will watch it today with just our class.
