Science

Labs in Action

Students are having a blast with hands-on labs and investigations.  They are learning the importance of working together and accepting ideas that may differ from their own.

Here are some pictures from our beginning of the year Swingers lab and our recent investigation from our new science program.  Students were exploring what happens during an earthquake.

Writing Collaboration

Writing Collaboration in Our Classroom

This week, students read each other's "trouble stories" and jotted compliments and suggestions for improvement.  They are learning to give and receive feedback in a meaningful way.  Students reviewed notes left by peers and made decisions on how to expand their ideas and improve their writing.

Be sure to ask your child to share details of this activity.  Here are a few pictures taken to capture the moment.

Welcome to our class blog.  We look forward to sharing our classroom happenings with you this year!
