Happy Mother's Day!
A special thank you to all our moms! May you have a blessed and RESTFUL weekend!
Math classes are getting ready to open their fictitious concession stands. Starting Monday, we will be creating prices and items to "sell" at our stores. Students are encouraged to invent and name their store. So far, we have been quite impressive with our name creations! We will use our math skills to calculate the sales tax and discount on our items.
In Computer Lab today we discovered information about the atoms and elements. We ventured throughout the site http:///www.learner.org.interactives.periodic/. The site also had games for us to play that asked us to create atoms of the elements.
Nutrition is the topic for our Wellness class. We discussed the importance of knowing what is on our Nutritional Labels. After turning in our graphs, we discussed what is included on the labels and why it is so important to our health.
Station work continued today in Mrs. Mac's class. We visited our last two learning centers from Wednesday afternoon. In addition, we enjoyed working on our book jackets for Pictures of Hollis Woods. They are shaping up nicely!
Homework:
Wellness: (204) Nutritional Label Graph due Monday
Science: Periodic Table (from computer lab) graded and due Wednesday
Language Arts: Book Jacket due 5-12
A REMINDER TO ALL STUDENTS TO BRING YOUR OWN PENCILS AND ERASERS TO USE AT SCHOOL, IF YOU HAVE THEM.
