Exciting Happenings in Room 8!

Today students received letters from their Sixth Grade Buddies.  Everyone was so excited, and we'll finally be meeting with them Monday afternoon to do some fun Halloween activities.  Our partner class is Ms. Magee and Ms. Osowski, who are co-teaching this year.

As a matter of fact, three students from this class came to our room today to celebrate this month's superpower - CREATIVITY - by showing students how to create a personalized jack-o-lantern using Google Slides.

This week we've been working on a new letter to our Indiana pen pals, and tomorrow we will be doing a Google Hangout with our friends in Cary, North Carolina.  We'll be able to see each other and talk about A Boy Called Bat in real time, which is so exciting!

Next Tuesday, we have parent volunteers coming in to help us with our annual Pumpkin Exploration activity, which is a bit messy, but so much fun!  Students will be combining their math and science skills to explore concepts like mass, density, and volume. 

Stay tuned for pictures of these exciting events.....
