Week of March 3rd, 2014

We kicked off the month of March by talking about Kindness. We will focus on how to show kindness this month by participating in various kindness activities during our morning meetings. Everyone carries around an imaginary bucket. Your bucket gets filled when someone shows kindness toward you or if you show kindness to others. Ask your student how he or she filled someone's bucket today. Students are working really hard during STEAM, creating commercials and print ads to advertise the play dough they created. We can't wait to show off our ads to visiting families and professional advertisers next week! During specialists students started their dance unit this week and look fabulous working together in the gymnasium. Students continue to work on nonfiction writing with their All About books and practiced measuring in standard and nonstandard measurements during math. We ended our week with the March community gathering in the gym with the whole school. We celebrated March birthdays and did the Cupid Shuffle with all students and staff! We also celebrated with a popcorn party in the learning studio. What a great week!
