Room 5 News Week of 3/22/2010

Ms. Diamond's News
Thank you to all of the families that came to Open House! I could see on the children's faces how much that night meant to them. I am so proud of them!

Language Arts News
We have been writing like crazy in room 5! Our science unit on plants was a major writing topic these last two months. Now we are ready to write all about springtime.

Math News
Students have mastered place value (understanding tens and ones) and telling time to the half hour. We have also learned the patterns involved in counting by twos, fives, and tens to 100.

Science/Soc. Studies News
The study of plants has dominated our science unit for the past two months. We have gone on nature walks, pulled weeds, studied plant parts, fruits, vegetables, and watched beans sprout. The students are excited by their new knowledge, and are able to apply it to new experiences in the real world!

Students of the Day/Month
Angelina Lee- responsibility
Jacob Conahan- compassion
Matthew Mahr- self-discipline

Birthdays and Special Days
March 1st- Kaitlin's birthday
April 9th coming up: Field Trip to the Underwood Farm

Art News
We have had the great privilege of having Ms. Barbara Eisner come to our class to teach standard-based art lessons in our class.

Room 5 Wish List
1. We need Ziploc bags! We need sandwich sized, quart sized, and storage sized bags.

2. We need pointers! Our students use these sticks daily, and many have broken. We especially need ones 2-3 feet (24"-36") long. You may order these from Lakeshore or find some cylindrical sticks at a hardware store. :-)
