Hello all,
By the time many of you read this, we will have already completed Parent night. It is my hope that it was both entertaining and informative. The first week is going well. I was REALLY pleased with the students work today. It took a little while to clear out some of those summer cobwebs, but we are starting to roll along. Math Races have been a success. Through math races we have already done mini-lessons on long division, exponents, decimals, multiplication, addition, subtraction, and order of operations. In science we have started our first inquiry project of the year. The students have worked together to build and observe paper airplanes. They then created questions based on those observations. They were then put into groups and the next step is to come up with a hypothesis and design an experiment to test their hypotheses. We will do several of these projects throughout the year. I hope that everyone has a wonderful weekend. Take care.
Mr. C
