Teacher Appreciation Week

 We love teacher appreciation week in Lower Elementary. Thank you to the PTO for the delicious lunch and most importantly a chance to eat lunch in a quiet room with other adults.  It was appreciated by everyone.  Also thank you to every family who sent in special gifts for us.  We are grateful for each and every one of you.   It has been an action packed, fun filled week in the Lower Elementary learning environment.  We had visits from a gecko and a hedgehog with facts presented by the student owners.  We had fun watering the garden each day.  The rosemary, coreopsis, blueberry, nasturtium and zinea plants need daily watering until  they are firmly established.  We continued our study on metric and customary liquid measurements. We continued with our calculations of area.  For the final lesson on the human senses we had a summary sorting by sense activity. Our poetry study this week was on acrostic poems.  Each student wrote their own acrostic poem about themselves or an important person in their life. Adding on a fraction number line was presented.  We continued with our focus on analogies. A science experiment related to the layers of the ocean was presented.  Finally each student wrote a paragraph about what they could do to be a peacemaker.  Hope everyone enjoys their weekend.
