Hi and HAPPY NOVEMBER. Wow, I can't believe that it's already November...and it's finally beginning to feel like Fall (well, except for the past two days that have been in the 70s:))
Please check out the Where We Are in Place and Time tab under Science and Social Studies for information about our new Unit. It's one of the students' favorite units because we get to go back in time and explore different civilizations!
Also, I have set each student up with a Frontrowed.com account. In order to get on the site, you can go to the math tab, then websites, and you will see a link for Frontrowed. The kids will need to log in with their First and Last names, and then enter the classroom code. They have all had the chance to use this educational website and seem to like it. It seems to be rigorous with the differentiated questioning, and has problems with multiple answers for the students to select. After each round, the kids can go "shop" for accessories for the pig....but the think I like best, is it doesn't let them stay in the shopping area for long at all - it times them!
Please feel free to check out this site.:)
OUR FIRST FIELD TRIP!
We are going to visit the Denver Museum of Nature and Science on Thursday, November 19th. I would love to have a few volunteers to join us. Please e-mail me if you are interested. We will leave around 9 am and return no later than 2 pm.
THANKSGIVING LUNCH is Friday, November 13th. Buy tickets at the office if you are interested.
