Short Week


We have a short, very busy week. Tomorrow we will record our commercials for our cereal box reports. I will try and figure out how to make them into a DVD for everyone.

After Thursday everyone will need a break. Students will have a science test on weather. Students will also have a social studies and spelling test. I am not having a reading test this week, but we will still read the story.

Don't forget the date to pay your Washington D.C. balance is approaching. Contact Mrs. Bower for questions.

Back to business


I hope that everyone made the most of the winter storm this weekend. That was one to remember and looks like it will be gone soon. Here is the snowman my kids made this weekend. We should be back to business this week without interruptions.

Don't forget fantasy/fairy tale literature projects are due this week. We are all doing the same cereal box reports that I read about on another teacher's website. For a link to her site to download the forms, click here, scroll down, and click on 2007-2008 Classroom Happenings, and click cereal reports. We will be filming commercials next week.

Homework packets are due Friday as well.

Maple Syrup!!!


We had a great time yesterday at Pattison Park tapping trees for maple syrup. We got to taste sap straight from the tree and fresh maple syrup and maple sugar. The weather was incredible (even though my allergies are suffering).

Don't forget tomorrow is early release. Students will be coming home 2 hours early.

Spring pictures are Thursday.

Yearbook order are due. They are $11.

Homework packets are due Friday.
