Duck Boats

A little rainy weather didn't stop us from having a great time on the Duck Boats! Check out all the "Captains in training!"

Franklin Park Zoo

 We had a fantastic day at the zoo! Students got to see the new lion, and even caught a glimpse at the new baby gorilla!! However, their favorite part might have been playing on the playground:)

Franklin Park Zoo...CANCELLED

Due to tomorrow's rainy forecast we have postponed our zoo field trip to Wednesday!!

Amazing Poetry Recitations!!

Part of our Poetry Unit is having students recite a poem of their choice from memory.  Students were graded using the following rubric.

Check out these videos to see how the students recited their poems.  I was very impressed!!!!

Weathering And Erosion Chant with Rooms 206 & 218

Students in rooms 206 & 218 worked hard to learn the difference between weathering and erosion.  To get them up and moving Ms. Sunderland and I taught them a little chant and "dance" to help them.  I'd say they did a pretty good job!!!
