Update 5/28


Today, the class had an assembly put on by the Children's Museum in SLC. They did a bunch of experiments and then let the students do some hands on work. The students were able to try mixing various liquids and solids and record the reactions. The students really seemed to enjoy it, except wearing the safety goggles. The class also did the work cycle for a shorter time. After lunch and recess, we did our class read aloud and learned about sculpture during the Renaissance by artists such as Ghiberti and Michelangelo. The students were then able to create their own sculptures using soap, a plastic knife, and a toothpick. Their work was very creative, and pictures of their masterpieces will soon be uploaded! There was everything from a heart to a Minecraft villager to a car, and I don't think our classroom tables have ever been so clean!

Many of the students are excited for the last week of school before Summer! Some of the plans include: a field day of fun and activities outside, a day of traveling troupes where each upper elementary class will have a chance to perform their groups readers theater, and a deep classroom clean. Just as a reminder, all of the students' belongings should be taken home on Thursday after school and nothing should be brought in on Friday. Anything in the cubbies on Friday afternoon will be considered a generous donation to the nearby homeless shelter.

Friday the students will also be having a yearbook "party", if your student does not have a yearbook, feel free to have them bring in a plain shirt or book to have their friends to sign. Next Friday is also a free dress day and one of the three school days that treats are allowed. Students may bring in any sweet to share with the class, but if they have treats/gifts for only a few friends please remind them to give them out after school. All the summer birthdays with be celebrated that day as well, so if you would like to send a few photos or a poster about your kiddo, you are more than welcome to do so.

Thank you all so much for a wonderful year! I am looking forward to having many of your children again next year. :)
