Newsletter, September 8-11


This week:  We have a short week this week!  Please remind your students to bring their library books this Friday for our library time.  

Last week:  We learned about multiple meaning words, context clues, and read about the island of Borneo.  Ask your kids about all about the animals and plants that live there.  We are learning about insects to start our big Bee Unit!  Your child knows the difference between complete and incomplete metamorphosis!  We learned a song to remember the parts of an insect.  Watch our YouTube video here.  



Wednesday, we had our first round of STEAM stations with students using Build with Chrome, creating habitats, and solving Tangram puzzles.  On Friday some of us discovered what makes up soil and some of us designed ants in the STEAM Lab. 



Reminders:  

Check your child's backpack every night for important papers and to see if they have homework.  Until it becomes habit, they may need a reminder. 

September's character trait is RESPONSIBILITY.  It is always a great idea to chat with your student about responsibility and how they can show their parents, teachers, and friends how to be responsible. 

The Hundred Mile Club is starting this week.  Please check your email for updates if your child is signed up.
