Students have been studying arthropods and this week was a chance to visit Arrow Creek Park and look for them. We shook trees and bushes, lifted rocks, and used aspirators, all in an effort to see what we could find and keep track of how many of a specific group we could find.
Ultimately, this information will be shared with Truckee Meadows Parks.
We continue to make huge academic strides and cover a lot of content. We completed our work with place value and have started a unit on multi-digit multiplication. We continued our study of the Earth and Sun with activities in and out of the classroom. We moved a Which One Doesn’t Belong to the four square area and thanks to our art volunteers, finished a lesson that integrated our language standards.
After paying rent, students participated in our first classroom auction. This was a chance for the students to use extra money they have earned, through academic and social citizenship, on items donated from a number of companies.
