Well tonights the night. Spring is in the air and the Spring Spectrum is the perfect place to be to celebrate. Come and join our wonderful singers and musicians. Apparently, an art show might just break out as well. So keep your eyes peeled for that. Something for all the senses! Students should be in the class by 6:45 tonight.

We also finished off some poetry work in Language Arts and did the next 10 words for our spelling. The spelling words can be found in the last post under this one.

In Math, we went back and did some review work on multiplying numbers as the students still are not sure on how the process works. Combining that with our work on rounding also confused them a little. Consequently, we spent some time going over the concepts again to make sure the students understand everything. I am working on some voicethreads to help students with this concept.

For Science we worked on a quiz today on distances of objects in space. I think the students did quite well which is reassuring. We followed that with making Mars Polar Landers. I was able to find a pattern that we could fold and make our own Polar Lander. Inserting a balloon allows it to float and land on a surface just like the actual Mars Polar Lander ( though of course that didn’t use a balloon).

We’ll see all of you tonight!
