SPRING HAS SPRUNG!

A great day to get outside and do some work!  We spent the day outside for science practicing Mean, Median, and Mode. 
During RTI, our literature groups also worked outside whether they were reading or meeting as a group for discussion.  

It was a great day at school! Here's a peak!

Science Fair Success!


WOW!!  WOW!! WOW!!  

I'm just amazed at how amazing all of the students did in our first Science Fair!  I can't deny that I was worried.  I didn't know what to expect and how it will all turn out.  In the end, I was blown away!  The students outdid themselves with their posters and presentations!  A judge commented that she was also amazed and so impressed with how each student knew their stuff!  

Congratulations to every student that participated in the science fair.  
You should be very proud of your hard work.  This assignment demonstrates your ability to continually work on a long-term project with focus and determination.  You learned how to go through the steps of the scientific method but you also learned time management, organization, public speaking, and doing your best work pays off!  These are all life skills that you will carry with you always no matter what you do!

Some highlights of the day!

Science Fair!

 


We have been busy in the classroom preparing for our upcoming Science Fair in March!  We have been lucky to have Science From Scientists join our classroom each month and guide us through the steps of a science experiment and what will be expected when students present theirs in March!


Please be aware that we created data tables and graphed some of our results today with the help of Mrs. Kosakowski.  This will help your child organize their data and be able to easily create a graph that tells what they discovered!  You can find more information in our Science Fair Google Classroom! 




Students test the acidity of orange juice!

On page 158, Mr. Daniels inspires Ally with a quote sometimes attributed to Albert Einstein. We have responded to this quote already and what it means. Having read further in the book and learning more about Ally, how does this quotation speak to Ally and her experiences? How does this moment in the text serve as a turning point for Ally?  Answer this in your Reader's Response Journal.
