What's Happening in Your Grade in December?
KINDERGARTEN No report
Season's greetings from FIRST GRADE! This month we will be learning about many different holiday traditions from around the world. We will sample different foods, play games, learn dances, and gain a better appreciation for other cultures. We will be learning map skills as well. If you have lived in or traveled to another country and would be willing to share your experiences with us, please let your child's teacher know as soon as possible. Thank you for all your help and support this year! We hope each family has a wonderful holiday season!
During the month of December, SECOND GRADERS will be telling time using analog clocks and studying linear patterns that repeat. They will also be studying about winter holidays around the world. Talk to you child about the traditions you had as a child and those you have continued in your family.
Have a great break "B Track," welcome back "C Track." The THIRD GRADE team is thankful for their students. Our field trip to the ballet was very educational. We are also thrilled to have some students involved in Science Fair this year. Many teachers are doing projects that help benefit the community. Miss Gilan's class is making scarves to donate to the rescue mission. We wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday Season!
Tis the season to be in FOURTH GRADE ,
Fa la la, la la la, la la la.
Come on time so your grades don't all fade,
Fa la la, la la la, la la la.
On the 7th we'll see the Symphony,
Fa la la, la la la, la la la.
Dress for warmth and come with a smile,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
The FIFTH GRADE has been working on writing good paragraphs and perfecting our multiplication skills. Most of us are studying the Revolutionary War in Social Studies and learning about magnets and electricity in Science. Our teachers attended a professional development class to help us teach the new Language Arts Common Core and are confident our students will do fabulous with it! Please help us by reading at least 20 minutes a night and being prepared for all assignments.
SIXTH GRADE is full of excitement, energy, anticipation... and yes... some anxiety. The new math common core has us hopping! We love it and are determined (character trait of the month) to understand and conquer it! We're doing lots of reading, writing, and arithmetic. In Science and Social Studies, we're learning about the universe, both on the earth and above it, and all it's aspects! Square Dancing on Friday mornings keeps us limber as a licorice stick. We have a Mustang Market on Dec. 2 where the kids learn and practice economic strategies. Our Digital Dance is schedule for Friday Dec. 16. Whew... December is busy! Happy Holidays to all!
