May 29, 2015

Good Morning,
We have had a great week of science.  The students started an experiment on plant needs.  They have also studied the root, stem and will look at leaves this afternoon.  They are learning how each is a part of a plant system and how it helps the plant survive.  Yesterday they learned about the difference between a tap root and fibrous root.  This afternoon they will learn about simple and compound leaves.  Next week we will be having a guest speaker present about photosynthesis and another present about seeds.

I hope everyone saw the note/posting about the class presentation evening on June 11th.  If you are not going to be able to attend, could you please let me know in advance?

Notes:

6/4/15  Our friends from Mr. Ibson's class (Harwood) will be visiting our classroom to see the final book projects.

6/8/15  Filed Days at Waitsfield.  These will take place after lunch.  Your kids may get wet so dress accordingly.  Remember the sunscreen.

6/11/15  Pen Pal field trip.  Bus will leave at 8:15.  Please remember to pack appropriate clothing, hiking shoes, and a water bottle.  All lunches must be NUT FREE!


Have a great weekend.

Peace,
Tommy
