Hello Everyone!
I hope that you all had a great break full of rest and good food! I wanted to welcome everyone back to our second semester at DVIA! I am so excited about this upcoming semester and can’t wait to see all of my wonderful students! I want to start with some thoughts on the upcoming project. Starting Monday we will be crawling, inching, jumping, and flying into our Entomology Project! We will be studying these magnificent tiny creatures from all different angles: community, anatomy, habitat, food, categorization, literature, data collection, measuring, lab reports… We are going to have a blast! You can find the Project Overview in the Projects section of this website. We will have a chance to go over both the new Work Journal #5 and the new Project Overview next week at the Work Journal Meetings. These will be held on Tuesday and Thursday at 2:00 pm in Patrick’s classroom. I would like to really encourage everyone to come this month, as there is both a new Work Journal form and a new project to cover. Work Journal #5 can be found under the Learning Goals. I am going to be experimenting with new forms of feedback this semester. You will be receiving periodic emails from me giving you specific feedback on how your student is doing approximately once a month. I hope that this becomes a helpful practice for everyone involved. I have decided to have students start working out of a math journal this semester. If you could please send your child with a composition book by next Friday that would be great. We are also going to need some jars (for our insect observation) so if you have any empty jars (any size), please send them to class with your child. In case you see any good sales at Staples/ Office Depot, class supplies sign up: http://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D48A8A729ABFE3-classroom Thank you again for all of your support- you are great! Let me know if you have any questions about the Work Journal, Project, or Work Journal meeting! Robin Comments are closed.
