This morning, we had a lively dinosaur presentation in the Kindergarten classroom. Parents came and saw the results of our amazing Dinosaur Unit, with activities from several of our specialist classes.

In technology class, students voice recorded themselves reading their dinosaur report. Then they created a Voki. Here are some examples:

After the Voki presentation, students shared their artwork.

They also showed their parents their Dinosaur Notebooks and their dinosaur sculpture and diorama.  So much to see!

Integrated curriculum really adds so much to a unit of study! I feel very fortunate to work with such innovative, creative, and hardworking teachers!

We are all officially 100 days smarter! It’s hard to believe we have had 100 days of school already! So much has been accomplished during these past 100 days. From building a caring classroom community, to learning how to read, write, and count to 100, these kids have risen to the occasion and accomplished it all! Today we took advantage of 100 days of learning to have some fun.

Students were encouraged to come to school dressed up like they might look when they are 100 years old. The results were hilarious!

They made 100 tally marks.

We did some writing as well.

For math, students made trail mix….10 pieces of ten different items! Yummy!

The day ended with a tour around the school to see all of the collections of 100 things and a 100 cupcakes!

100 pennies.

100 stickers.

100 Lego pieces.

The fourth graders read 100 books.

The third graders came up with 100 synonyms for “said.”

 

100 cupcakes!

Hooray for the 100th Day!!
