We had a great start to our study of animal adaptations today. If you have a chance, ask your child about our blubber experiment.
We started using the laptops this week to work on keyboarding, word processing, and publishing our writing. The students are doing a great job with following directions, taking care of the laptops, and staying on task while on the computers.
We are working on several skills in class: personal independence, making good choices, self-control, and a concern and care for others. I appreciate your emphasis of these same concepts at home. I have already noticed progress in many of the students!
We are enjoying our chapter book, Frindle. We have discovered the power struggle between the student and his teacher. The students are doing a great job with comparing and contrasting the two characters.
Hope you had a great Wednesday!
