Just a few reminders…
The 4th and 5th grade Ocean Animal Research projects are due on Friday. I look forward to seeing them!
I sent home papers today about the school spelling bee and spring pictures (April 14). There was also a reminder about ordering a yearbook. Its not too late!
The 6th graders are planning a chili cook off for April 16th. Each class has been asked to enter a pot of chili into the contest. If you make great chili and would be willing to come help our class cook some next Thursday, I would really appreciate it!
The 6th graders have each chosen a state to study and do a project about. I haven’t given them specific details yet, but they can start researching their state and taking notes and thinking about how they would like to present it. Some ideas are a poster, a travel brochure, a power point, a model that includes landmarks and land and water forms, etc. Another thing the 6th graders should be working on is learning their states and capitals. A fun app that helps with learning about the states is “stack the states”. I have it on my ipad and it is great!
Thanks so much for your help and support!
