Thank you to all the parents who attended Curriculum Night on Wednesday! It was great seeing both new and familiar faces. If you were unable to attend, you can download my homeroom newsletter which is located under “documents” on my webpage. You can also sign up to help with upcoming classroom parties by emailing me at jennifer.singer@adams12.org and indicating which party you are interested in helping with.
Colorado History: Last week, the students presented their information on the different regions of Colorado. We will be creating maps this week which identify the four regions of our state and important facts about each region. We will also focus on maps and map skills, using maps of Colorado to identify symbols and use the map’s key and index.
The TEST over the states that border Colorado, the corridor cities, and locating the Four Corners will be on Wednesday, September 17. A study guide was completed in class on Friday. Please take some time to look over this with your child and ensure that he/she is ready for the test. Spelling and capitalization count!
Science: Last week we took a look at water conservation and how we can save water at home and at school. The students had fun creating their own comic strips with superheroes who want to conserve! We will start to take a look at surface tension in water this week.
