Hello, I hope everyone had a great weekend. This year we are going to have guest reporters giving us their comments on what is going on in our room. This week we will be hearing from Deric P.
We started the school year. We started E.R.B. testing. We did a thing called scavenger hunt to learn more about each other. The class filled bean bags with bean bag beans. The class also made class rules - Be Respectful, Be Responsible, Be Safe, Have fun, Let Mrs. Root teach, Do your best.
and Stella F.
During the second week of school, we finished the E.R.B. testing from last week. Then we started learning about geology; we watched an Earth movie and took notes,and we did an Earth experiment with an egg (we cracked the eggshell which is the crust, peeled the shell off the egg, cut the egg in half, and saw the "mantle" and "core"). Our homework was the "artifact bag"(we bring in 10-15 items that we share with the class about ourselves). We also had student council elections. Three students ran for class representative:Madi Smith, Maddie Dillon, and Angela Fei. After three wonderful speeches, and a close vote, Madi Smith was class representative, and Maddie Dillon was the alternate. There was also an art contest by IFAW (a group that helps animals). These are the things that we did in the second week of school.
I hope you enjoy hearing from our Journalists.
