What is going on in theme (homeroom) this week?
The students took their pretest late last week for our Earth Science unit. The test is in their Monday Folder today, so that it can be used as a study guide throughout the unit. I did have a couple of no-names so if you don’t see it in the folder, please have your child search the no-name pile. We will be discussing and exploring matter this week. The students will be comparing solids, liquids and gases. We’ll be doing an experiment with the molecular structure of each. Also, the class will be split into small groups to experiment with four different types of liquids.

What is going on in theme (homeroom) this week?
The students that have decided to run for mayor will be doing their speeches today. The students will be “registering to vote” and then will be “going to the poll” to elect their mayor. The outcome of who becomes mayor is irrelevant. The purpose of this lesson is so that the students know the role of poiticians and can see how an election works.
Wednesday workshop will be done on Thursday this week (I know, it’s an oxy-moron)! The students will be doing an ongoing project where they will be creating a character. As the year progresses, they’ll be adding embellishments to their character, such as a birth certificate, passport, wallet/purse items, clothes, writing a letter, etc. It is going to be a fun, creative and hands-on activity
Theme Homework- None
