The student's presented their Biography/Autobiography Book Reports on the Friday before February Vacation. They came out wonderful! The options for this book report were that they could dress up as the person their book was about, or they could create a puppet representing their person, and use their puppet to do their presentation.

Good Morning,
Happy last week of March! Hopefully the weather will show us that it's the last week of March soon! On Wednesday the students will be setting up their Science Fair boards and doing a practice run through for Thursday. Please make sure that they have any additions that they need (plants, food, bottles, etc.) with them on Wednesday morning. This way they will be set up, and ready to go. Also just a reminder, the Action/Adventure Book Reports are due Friday. Wednesday the student's will have a Wordly Wise Quiz to wrap up this past lesson before it gets too busy with the Science Fair and Book Reports. The next book report is "Poetry". The title of the books that the student's choose is due to me on Wednesday, April 1st. I have a list of Poetry Books on my blog, along with the project options. This one is fairly easy, as they will choose a book, but then pick out their favorite poem in the book they choose. The actual report isn't due until May 4th. Friday, April 3rd is "Bring a Buddy" to school day. If your child is planning on bringing someone, can you please let me know by next Monday, March 30th. I just want to make sure that I include any additional friends in my planning for that day. As always, please let me know if you have any questions or concerns! Best, Mrs. Z Hi All,
I left this off of my updates- my apologies. The Cotuit Center For the Arts will be joining us next Monday to help do a writing project with the students as part of a program they are currently doing. If the student's could each bring in a key (preferably an old one) by next Monday, March 2nd, that would be fantastic. If you do not have one, no worries, we will have some extras. I am going to search this week for some old, cool looking ones. Thanks so much! Good Afternoon Parents,

I hope the kids are getting lots of sledding and snowman building in. I have been enjoying some cooking, playing in the snow with the dog, "spring cleaning", and catching up on some much needed relaxing! I just wanted to quickly remind everyone that tomorrow is Pajama day! If you signed up for something, please remember to bring it tomorrow. Also, we will still have a spelling text tomorrow- so just remind the kids to study as well. Enjoy today! See you all tomorrow (: Thank you so much, Ryann In Science the students have been learning about sound. This week we learned about how sound is transferred from one object to another. The students did some hands on projects including listening to sound through walls and several different objects. The students then got to create an instrument and compare the different pitches each instrument made depending on it's size and shape. Below are some pictures from the fun lesson!
This week the Museum of Science came to visit with a wonderful presentation on Sound....the kids even got to see a glass break from a high pitch sound! So much fun!
