Good morning everyone,

I hope you all had a restful weekend after the busy week we had. I wanted to take the chance to say CONGRATULATIONS to all our students. You did such a wonderful job performing at the Language Festival and I was SO proud of all of you. Thank you for all the hard work you put in. It really showed. You are all stars! And thank you to the parents who were able to make it out and support us.

We had a busy and productive day today. We have started to practice for our upcoming Christmas performance as well as review for exams (major subject exams will take place next Thursday December 12 and Friday December 13).

In Language class this morning we did a lot of practice with pronouns, the BE verb, and regular past tense verbs. Everyone was actively participating and we covered a lot of material.

In Science class we compared and contrasted the needs of animals with those of people by making a Venn diagram and filling it in together. We learned that both people and animals need food, water, air, space, and shelter.

Miss Mahon and I did a joined Art class this afternoon where the students experimented with mixing colors on a page without making a picture. They explored mixing with brushes and even their fingers. We had a great time!

We had a fantastic Social Studies class where we did a mock vote to decide where to hang a decoration in our classroom. The students came up to our voting booth one by one to fill out their ballot and put it in the box. Afterwards we made a tally chart on the board to count our votes. It was a great learning experience.
