Writing & Music

We are preparing for our Christmas Concert which is at 1:00 on December 6th at the Vert.



We started writing our personal stories today and I am so excited to hear more. We have great writers. Stay tuned to see our finished work in the near future.

Letters to Uganda

We had fun today working on our final copy of our letters to our friends in Uganda. We also are using the Pic Collage app to create a fun picture to send them. There were 32 photographers in the room organizing shots like this one.




Did I tell you we received a grant from Altrusa International to purchase an iPod for the Uganda friends? Now we are in the process of ordering and shipping the iPod. Then we will both post pictures and letters to each other through the joint blog. More on that as it develops.

Candy Elevator

I am hooked on iMovie. It doesn't hurt that I have a few hams too.
We had fun celebrating our good behavior with participation in the Candy Elevator competition.

Paper Wasp Nest

TP brought in a paper wasp nest and we dissected it. We found it had many layers surrounding the brood nursery.






We found all kinds of insect parts too.








Then we learned that they are water proof so we had to test it out. Sure enough, they are! The water stayed on the outer layer.



Thank you TP and family for sharing your find with us.

Awards Assembly

I was proud to present these students with an award for citizenship during our school assembly today.

 

We are reading a great book called, There is a Boy in the Girls Bathroom.

It has many twists and turns. I wonder how it will end.
