Week 29 (March 23 -27)

March 23 – 27 (Week 29)

Our last week before launching into spring break was a great one!  Although it was a fairly short week we still managed to get lots done! As always the kids were amazing and ready to engage in our many learning experiences.

Inventions
 As you all know with our unit on supply and demand, we decided to create our own inventions and go through the process of advertising and selling them to the community. So in our final week we were so busy finalizing our inventions that the week zoomed by! The kids did such an amazing job thinking of an invention, coming up with a reasonable price, creating and advertisement, and creating a model of their invention.





Reading and Writing
As always we are constantly working on growing as readers and writers. Our kids have grown tremendously as both. We will soon be taking a look at a recent piece of writing and a piece of writing from the beginning o the year. I’m excited to have the students witness their growth.

The abilities and techniques that the students have gained over the past few months have been amazing. I remember at the beginning of the year when some of our kids were afraid to read with me or felt uncomfortable reading altogether. Now they have grown so much as readers that they are confident enough to read to our entire class.







Upcoming Events

As you all know we have many field studies and events coming up so please be sure to check your child’s calendar and binder daily! If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to contact me!
