Dear Families,

It was wonderful to see so many of you yesterday for Parents As Reading Partners.  We hope you enjoyed reading Time for Kids and discussing text features with your child.  Enjoy the photographs below.

Oceanography

Dear Familes,

We had a day full of science today. First we talked about water pollution and tried to clean up an oil spill in class. We tested many different materials to see which would most effectively clean up an oil spill. We discovered there is no one material to solve this problem. Prevention is the key.

Later we headed to the science lab where we dissected squid. Remember to ask your child to show you their squid pen and beak if they dared to take it home in a Ziploc.

Have a wonderful weekend!

5th Grade Tie Dye Day!

Dear Families,

We had a groovy time today tie dyeing t-shirts.  Can you dig it?  Check out our cool pictures! We are sending home washing instructions for your child’s far out creation.  Please make sure they wear the t-shirt on Monday to meet Gordon Korman.

Peace out!
