It was great seeing so many of you supporting our new playground
by coming to the McDonald’s event on Wednesday. Thank you for
your support!!
*Social Studies: We are working on our culture day projects. A note was sent home today containing information about your child's presentation on their culture/country. A portion of the presentation is reading a few of the chapters of their paper, which we are working on in class. They also need to prepare some of the presentation at home- they can bring in artifacts (photos, souvenirs, clothing, food), make a poster about the culture, a google slide show, etc. The note will explain their options.
If your child chooses to send in food from his/her culture to share, please keep the following guidelines in mind:
1. bite sized samples only to share!
2. send in a complete list of ingredients and NO NUTS please
3. If your food requires utensils or cups/plates, please provide them
This is a highlight of the year and the kids and teachers LOVE these presentations. It's a great way to learn about the world and each other. The presentations won't begin until March. Your child's note will have the exact day of their presentation, as not all students can share on the same day.
In WIN class, we’ll be presenting our African American history
biography projects.
Social Science: We continue our science unit on inheritance
and traits.
