Moms and Muffins—this Friday please join us between 9 and 11 a.m. Stay for one hour or both, whatever works for you. The kids are excited to share their work!
Field Trip—we will be taking a field trip to DeGraaf Nature Center on December 2, 2008 from 9:30-11:30 a.m. We will be participating in the "pioneer living" program and will be working both indoors and outdoors. Please have students dress for this field trip in layers, to accommodate both indoor and outdoor activities. DeGraaf does not allow students to participate if they are not dressed properly. I will be able to take two adults on this field trip, if you are interested in going with us to DeGraaf please call or email. I'll be able to take the first two parents that respond.
Photos—I will be uploading photos this week to the Photobucket page from both Veterans Day and Science Alive.
Excellent Christmas shopping can be found this weekend at Waukazoo's Holiday Bazaar; Saturday, November 22 from 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.
Curriculum—in writing this week we have been working on sequencing and adding details to our essays and stories. We practiced a writing tool called sensory imaging and connected the practice to our science observations on ecosystems. We are also in the planning stages for writing a tall tale; we will be connecting our sensory imaging practice to our tall tale rough drafts. Stay tuned to soon see a rough draft of our tall tale!
