Monday, September 22nd
Hello, I'm Emily. Today in class, we discussed how we would survive in different biomes. We separated into groups of four and had twenty minutes to discuss how we would survive. We also had library time, like every Monday.
Tuesday, September 23rd
Today we had our Language lessons, and Science rotations. For Science, the 6th graders learned about Venus, the 5th graders studied volcanoes, and the 4th graders learned about weather. Some people wrote their names in cuneiform in clay.
Wednesday, September 24th
Today, we had P.E. with Ms. Victoria's class and we played color tag. We also did our group reading. At recess, we played jump rope and hula hoop. During work cycle, Eliza, Saige, Lydia, Amelia, and I worked on practicing our play that we will perform on Thursday.

"Today in Ms. Alisha's class, as we came in we went and sat in the crescent. They were asked what their favorite thing was. They got up for the pledge and said it. Later, they had the three hour work cycle, some finished and some didn't. The ones who finished went outside and built a bridge out of marshmallows and noodles. The ones who didn't had to stay in and finish their work. After that they had lunch and got stuffed. After that they read, talked about jobs, and did jobs. Then suddenly RING! The bell rang, everyone left. That was just some of the day."

"Today, when Ms. Alisha's class came to school, they were asked their favorite teams. They did some stretches and went to work. They worked on their Egypt projects and Science. Some kids started to read, some kids got called into groups. Most of the groups were on Math. They had snack within 10-15 minutes. They worked for three hours. At recess, they got a lot of energy out. At lunch, some kids were hungry and some stuffed. After that they read Bridge to Terabithia. In it Leslie died. They also use pillows, but they had a tax. A pillow tax. They have to pick up five scraps of stuff off the floor. After that they cleaned up and left."

"Today, Ms. Alisha's class came in and was asked one of their favorite colors. They said the pledge and started the three hour work cycle. Most people didn't finish the follow up work. Today some groups were on Math. They did LOTS of work. At recess, some kids got hot, others were just sitting. Lunch was loud. They read Bridge to Teribethia. They only have one more chapter. After that they did practice for the Egypt wax museum. After, they went home."

"Today, Ms. Alisha's class came in and was asked their favorite holiday. Some kids said Christmas and others their birthdays! They said the pledge and said it again. The reason was some kids didn't really say it. After, they talked about random things, then started work. Lots of kids did their shape commercials. Rench (recess/lunch) was fun. Lunch was weird. Lots of the lunch ladies gave out milk that smelled like bleach.** After, they did Science and left. Pretty short day, huh?"

**Note: Milk was not expired and smelled/tasted average.

September Update
Hello parents,
Our classroom would love your old cereal and shoe boxes! We will be doing projects with both of these lovely items. I am hoping for 27 + cereal boxes and 10-15 shoe boxes. I have also updated our classroom wishlist (once again) and must truly thank all the wonderful parents for the donations we have received.
Lastly, I have been doing weekly updates on each student, so please be sure to check on Compass weekly to view information on your child and post responses too. I appreciate all the feedback and communication so far.
