I hope everyone had a wonderful two week winter break! It was so nice to relax, spend time with family, and sleep in!2018 is upon us and we started off the week by talking about our New Years Resolutions. Students thought about what goals they have for the new year, what they hope to achieve, and we created a cute art project with it. They are brightening up our classroom!
This week is the last week of Feature Articles. We've been working for 4 weeks! Everyone has been working hard to create their magazine articles about their topic and I'm so excited at all the progress I'm seeing! Everyone is taking a lot of care in their research and picking out the perfect pictures to go along with their information. A printed copy of their article is due on Tuesday, January 16th.
Next week we will be starting our DARE program. DARE is taught weekly by a Pleasanton Police Officer. This year we have Officer Batt joining us. This is always a highlight of our 5th grade year and the kids were very excited to start. Please return the permission slips by Tuesday, January 16th, which is our first day of DARE!
