ROOM 12 UPDATE:
This is an exciting week of learning in Room 12. Contrary to many students' belief, learning continues full-steam ahead after testing. Here is an update of all that is happening in our class this week:
* We started our final book of the year: My Side of the Mountain. Students will be given the choice to do their reading homework at home, or in class during DEAR time.
* Our 20 vocabulary/ spelling words are from this book.
* There will not be as much homework so students can prepare for their Science Project Speeches on their assigned day that they chose. I have sent the grading sheet with them so they know what is expected.
* Open House is on Thursday, May 10th at 6:30-8:00. The Burrito Feed starts at 5pm for those interested. Our 3 Things Movie will be played at 7pm and we will sing a couple songs together following this. I encourage all of you to come see the amazing projects, writing and slide show that our class has worked so hard on.
* Last Friday I passed out the script for our Mock Trial Field Trip on Thursday, May 17th. This week, Dana Scruggs, the attorney from the trip will be teaching about law and the court system to prep. us.
* Students should continue practicing the songs and lines for the play. Also, it would be great if students could have some simple costume by next Monday when we begin using the stage/sound system. I'll post some pics of students from previous years for ideas soon.
