Diorama Planning

This morning we had a chance to start our last set of the Acadian centers. We are excited to have them all ready to show you at conferences! Then we moved on to story writing. A lot of us have finished planning and are now writing our stories. We are finding the story string very helpful and lots of us are following it closely to make sure we have all the important pieces in our stories.


After recess the grade 2's went with Ms. Stephure to continue their word work and the grade 1's stayed with Ms. Boyer to start our April spelling test. We will be finishing the test tomorrow. So far it is going very well!  Then it was time for Treasure Math. We have so many Jr. Generals now that we decided to give a few of them the day off. If you were a general who got the day off today you were invited to go play Mathletics on the computer.

This afternoon we finished planning for our dioramas. We will be starting to paint the backgrounds tomorrow. We still have several students without shoeboxes. If you happen to have any extra shoeboxes at home we would love a few donations!

Today we are bringing home a special song book to help us begin practicing our songs for the Room 1 and 2 assembly. We only have a few weeks to get ready for the show so a little extra practice would be very helpful. These songs are also on YouTube if you want to watch the videos or practice by singing along.

Our helper tomorrow is: Evelyn
