I cannot believe what a crazy-busy week this was!! I thought I’d share some of it with all of you, as I know you’d like to see what your kids have been up to in Room 204:
Monday:
iPad Day – the kids are great at using QR codes to scan into their assignments. This time our code brought us to a Google Form to work with a video we love. All of our work (including the looping video) was posted on the front board so it was a great way to get rolling first thing in the morning:
That afternoon, we had a Skype call with my niece in law, Jessica Marie Garcia who plays Willow on the Disney Channel’s Liv & Maddie, and plays Becky on ABC’s The Middle. She was awesome with the kids, and they had great questions for her. She shared some great advice for their upcoming Wax Museum performances – strategies to memorize speeches and reasons not to be nervous. Thank you, Jess!
Tuesday:
Later in the day, the third grade received 24 anoles. We have 5 in our classroom and they were there for more than 2 hours before anyone noticed them, ha ha.
Anole smiling for the doc camera.
Crickets begging to be set free.
Wednesday & Thursday:
MCAS – this group of students was so well-prepared for the test and all of them worked really hard with positive attitudes. They loved their before and after snacks, and their notes always make us smile. Thank you for your support.
Our playground looks AMAZING after all the work done after our Spruce Up Day. It seems that the grounds are welcoming to wildlife, too. Students with a keen eye were able to spot a baby bunny bounding through recess on Wednesday, and a pair of chatty ducks on Thursday. Quack, Quack!!
Friday:
Today was Walk to School Day. The fog did nothing to dampen our spirits as 500 students made their way up from Surf Drive Beach.
Today we finished up our (ssssshhhhhhhh) Mother’s Day projects, too!
Created using FableVision’s Stationery Studio.
If your child sleeps like a rock tonight, you’ll certainly know why. Mrs. Price, Mr. Persico and myself are wiped out, as well! Sweet Dreams, Room 204 Families!
