Today we put on the gloves and tore into owl pellets. The kids were totally fascinated. Several found rodent skulls in their pellets. On Thursday we will be sorting and identifying the bones we found.
The DPHS Science Club will be with us tomorrow morning. They are teaching the kids about density. The hands-on science lab will take place first thing with our class and Mr. Potter’s class.
I know several of you have already completed your volunteer paperwork and I’ve been able to put you to work!
If anyone would like to work from home, I’d love to have a parent organize the book orders from Scholastic. (I’m not allowed to touch any money/checks.) I’d also be able to use help prepping materials.
Our fall harvest party will be on the 30th at 1:30ish after the costume parade. I’d love some help putting this together!
If you are brave, I need four more parents to join Mrs. Turner in chaperoning our field trip to the symphony on Nov. 10.
E-mail or call if you’d like to help!!
On Thursday I will be attending a science training in Spokane. I will also be gone Friday to take care of family things. I will sure miss those kids!!
The kids now have a green sheet in their binders showing a great strategy for practicing spelling words. They should also be able able to show you how to proofread a word using dots to indicate correct letters and circling yo mark incorrect parts. This strategy can be used on any piece of paper, including the yellow practice sheet that comes home on Fridays. Let me know if you have more questions!!
Welcome to our new classroom website! I am looking forward to using this as a tool for us to communicate throughout the school year. You will also be able to check homework assignments, follow links to interesting sites, and see photos from our classroom. Please be patient as this construction process moves forward…My learning curve with technology is often steep!!
