 Hello! Hope everyone had a great long weekend. 

Today we: 

  • reviewed all of our work with fractions and did some practice on prodigy - students can log in at home and show you if they want! - see photos below
  • read 2 chapters of our read aloud "The City of Ember!" - ask me tonight about what we read! We also put key details in our visual journal! 
  • also learned that we are going to make "vaults" and "burglar alarms" starting tomorrow! We still need a few more shoe boxes for this (if anyone has one lying around)! This will be to wrap up our electricity unit.
  • learned all about British North America and what life was like in the 1800s. 
Reminders:

  • This is just a friendly reminder about our spirt day - "Career Day" (aka "dress up like what you want you want to be when you grow up" day) - which is tomorrow! Students can dress up like something they would like to be when they grow up! For example - a scientist or a chef or a soccer player! Be creative and anything counts. Can't wait to see what you all dream up!

It has been such a joy to be your teacher this year. I am so excited for your next part of the journey in life! You will have such a good time in middle school and I can't wait to see all that you accomplish in life.

 Today we: -Listened to the story "The Wish Tree" and created wish ornaments for our wish trees at Northern Lights. We will be putting up the trees and placing our ornaments tomorrow during Makerspace. -Learned about four ways to start writing the beginning of a story, including an action, a thought or question, a sound, and dialogue. We wrote a story beginning as a class and practiced writing a story beginning about a camping trip independently. Then we started planning how we will start our pourquoi story beginning with our wetland animal. Reminders: -PJ Day tomorrow. Please do not bring stuffies to school.
