Monty Money Winners of the week!
Monty Moments: I'm thankful for YOU!
Tigers,
I wanted to send a big thank you to all of the families at Monteith and especially our PTO board, Students and Staff. I think the books that I was given as a huge surprise with a note from EVERY student will be something I treasure for the rest of my life! If you know me well you know how much I care about each student at this school and receiving a note from each of them about how I have impacted their time at Monteith meant the world to me.
I hope this thankful season you each have an opportunity to thank someone in your life for the big and small things they do for you!
Remember we have spirit days coming up:
Monday November 21st: Team Spirit Day: wear a jersey, shirt, gear to support a team you've played/danced/cheered for or just a team you like.

ART NEWS
Fourth graders and magnet students learned about different aspects of the color wheel and how to mix colors to create other colors. We also learned about Positive and Negative space in sculpture. In our snowflakes, the holes cut out are our negative space and the rest of the snowflake is our positive space. After students cut out their negative spaces, they colored their coffee filters in markers, selecting warm or cool colors. Next, we sprayed water on the filter to blend the colors together to create new colors, in a technique of painting with water. After drying, students now have a 3D sculpture of a very colorful painting of a snowflake. Happy colorful winter!
