We're still in sick season- boo! Just some reminders about when your student should stay home. Please call your student's school nurse for specific questions or concerns.
In Mrs. Davis' classroom, we practiced our skills in following directions, cutting, and writing when we created our Love Robots. We had to write about someone we love from our family and why. This was our Fun Friday activity for Valentine's week. I hope the families enjoyed them as much as we did making them.
Mrs. Davis told her class that she didn't care where they were reading their books, as long as they were reading. She told them that they could even read under their desks if they wanted to. Of course, they wanted to try it out today. What a fun way to read on Fun Friday!
Sixth grade students finished their unit on Ancient India with STEM projects. They had to protect a stupa from flooding or bring rainwater to fields with an irrigation system. Both of these projects helped us learn about monsoon seasons in India and the challenges faced in ancient times.
