Band/Orchestra Concert

A Week in Review
June 2 - 6
 
 
Happy Friday! It's hard to believe that the last day of school is right around the corner! It seems like just yesterday we were in September! These students have worked so hard and grown so much, I am very proud of all of them. The Band and Orchestra concert on Thursday was wonderful! I was so impressed with how well they did. Ms. Shaw and Mr. Gillespie are amazing teachers and it showed in the students' performance. You could tell our students worked hard and took their music education seriously!
 
Virtue Awards:
Elysia has earned a Virtue Award for demonstrating the virtues of kindness and reliability. You can always count on Elysia to treat others with kindness and respect! Elysia's kind heart is an asset to our classroom.
 
Trevor has earned a Virtue Award for demonstrating the virtues of joyfulness and friendliness. Trevor is always smiling and showing kindness to everyone. His positive attitude makes our classroom a better place!
 
 
 
 
 
Reading:
We finished our Crash book this week. We really enjoyed the story and the tough choices that the main character had to make. It really isn't easy, doing the right thing sometimes, but it is what makes a positive difference in the end.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Health/Drug Education:
Nurse Park joined us on Monday to teach the last Health lesson, HIV/AIDS. Then we started our Drug Education lessons. Today, we reviewed the harmful effects of tobacco and other tobacco related facts that students had learned in 3rd and 4th grade.
 


 
Math:
In Math, we finished Unit 9 Multiplication and Division with Fractions. Students took their final end-of-unit assessment, where they were tasked with demonstrating their understanding of the main concepts taught in the unit.
 
 
 
 
 
Science:
Ms. Keenan and our students took their final Science assessment this week. They independently wrote a procedure for an isopod experiment, using previous investigations to guide their work.
 
 
 

 
 
Social Studies:
Our Social Studies unit also came to a close this week, as we took our end-of-trimester assessment! The test covered the American Revolution, the founding of our government, the three branches of government, and the Bill of Rights.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Enjoy your weekend!
 
Go Seahawks!
