Let's have a Seuss-sational Celebration!
Happy birthday, Dr. Seuss, on March 2nd. All week long we will share the magic of Dr. Seuss and the fun of his stories. Guest readers will join us on Monday the 2nd and Friday the 6th. I'm sure we will have some throughout the week, too.
Students will have the opportunity to earn some treats and prizes from the trivia contests and the fun of dressing up for each of our themed days.
Mr. Kevin Clouse will kick-off the celebrations with a special presentation after the Recognition Friday assembly on February 28th. We always enjoy his shows!
The complete week's agenda is posted below so you won't miss any of our events.
Makerspaces This Week
Since Mardi Gras is February 25th, our makerspaces will be coordinated with this theme. We will have an informational slideshow and music. Arts will include jewelry and masks. Crafts will include painting and noisemakers. There will also be LEGO-themed building challenges. Enjoy!
What kind of lessons are we doing?
2nd grade
We use databases to find information and listen to recorded lessons. Thanks to a CPS Foundation Grant, we will be doing community service projects next month.
3rd grade
We're working on Google Drawings. Our project is a figurative language poster for our selected farm animal.
4th grade
We researched famous inventors and made a digital trading card for our person. (Courtesy: Barrett Blakemore)
