APRIL!?  
It doesn't seem possible.  I hope everyone had a wonderful spring break.  We have a lot of work to do before June 14th!  This is an amazing part of the school year.  It's one of my favorite seasons.  Spring will spring...we hope...and they will continue to soak up as much information as they can during these final months of school.  We continue to work on basic facts (and they should continue to practice things at home too!) along with learning new concepts in math and science.  We are doing a LOT of writing - responding to what we are reading, journaling, lists, point of view, and finishing our biography reports.  Whew!

These are our 3D pyramids about The Three Fires.  Group B is working hard to learn all about life in Michigan.  We are learning about the lives of the Native American peoples, along with the French Voyagers who traveled throughout the Great Lake region.  

Zach brought a canoe he had made to share with the class. 

CAMP READ-A-LOT!

What a great way to celebrate the end of March is READING month!  We made s'mores (delish!), read books to one another, read books to ourselves, talked about our reading, and celebrated books and how much they impact our daily lives.

PBIS Celebration!

The LIMBO was a HUGE hit!  Wow, we have flexible kids!  It was a wonderful way to end a wonderful day.  

At the end of the day, I was cleaning the classroom and getting ready to head home.  As I was leaving, I noticed these two pigs.  They were ready for break - reading a great book and celebrating how important it is to read a good book.  =)
