Weekly Update - May 20

This year has FLOWN by!  We are finished checking out books and students are allowed to keep books until they are finished, but we're hoping most of the books will be back soon!!

Kindergarten: We worked on spiral stories this week.  We read The Napping House by Audrey Wood , This is the House that Jack Built by Simms Taback and Polar Bear, Polar Bear, What Do You Hear? by Bill Martin Jr.  Spiral stories are ones where there are parts that are repeated or added on to each page.

First Grade: We finished our ___landia's!  We wrote and drew animals, plants, holidays, and sports that would be in our land.  If we had time, we also created maps and flags.  It was fun and VERY creative!

Second Grade:  We continued to work on Internet Safety and spent some time working with the Netsmartz curriculum. We talked about being safe online AND offline.

Third Grade: We had a "hodge podge" day in library this week!  We shared our Last Night I Dreamed of Chickens spin off, we looked at our essential skills for the year and some classes had time to watch the Dewey rap!

Fourth Grade:  We officially finished our Spine Label poetry and some students worked on library skills on the computer.

Fifth Grade: We learned about Destiny Quest and how to write reviews for other students to read about the books we have finished this year!

Sixth Grade:  Our student lead projects are coming along nicely.  We hope we can get them finished our next library time!!
