Maths Mansion

Yesterday our students visited "Maths Mansion" where there is "no leaving without learning!" We rotated between 8 math centers doing angles, place value, story problems, estimating, etc. It was good spooky fun for everyone. And I think they all left learning something. Hopefully, they are all out enjoying the incredible snow today:)

Ayer tuvimos una tarde de "Maths Mansion." Hicimos juegos de matemáticas por la tarde juntos con la clase de Sra. Miller. Nos ayudaron varias voluntarios. Aprendimos mucho y repasamos mucho de lo que hemos aprendido. Ojala que hoy estan afuera disfrutando del dia de nieve:)

Today we made a model of the four layers of the earth out of clay. The students wrote and expository paragraph first by taking notes on a short video and then converting it into a perfect 10 sentence paragraph. Notice how each layer has been labeled by the students with toothpicks.

Hoy hicimos modelos del mundo usando plastelina.

Gracias a todos los padres quienes asistieron las conferencia entre maestra y padres esta noche. Y tambien gracias a los que van a asitir el viernes!

Celebration

This week THREE of our students became members of the AR 50-Point Club: Edward, Josue, and Carlos. Congratulations to them!!! They have obtained a level of excellence in their reading habits and comprehension.

A lot of our students were out sick this week. We hope that they experience a quick and complete recovery and are able to join us again this coming week.

Esta semama tres de nuestros estudiantes alcanzaron ser miembros del Club 50-Puntos. Han leido tanto desde el principio del ano escolar que han recibido 50 puntos por las pruebas de computadora. Felicitaciones!!!

Varios de nuestros estudiantes sufrieron de enfermedades esta semana. Esperamos que pueden mejorarse pronto y que peuden estar con nosotros en la semana entrante.

Native American Celebrations Preparations

We had another awesome week at school. Carlos brought in one of his new puppies to show us after school. Here is a picture of the puppy with the group that was staying after school to do homework.

We are earning points toward a Native American celebration on Friday, November 13th. Those students who learn how to write a perfect 8-sentence paragraph will have earned their mocassins. Those who master Expanded Notation will earn their "peace pipe." We are also working hard to master correct sentence structure. We still have a lot of students that write run-on sentences. Please congratulate the students on the side bar who have mastered the 8-sentence paragraph!!!
