Hello everyone!
It has been a fun and productive 2009. Can't wait to see what 2010 has in store for us. In case you are wondering, here are some highlights:
Social Studies
We will be studying the South in conjunction with Martin Luther King Jr. the Civil Rights movement. We will be reading from the book, (and hopefully listening to on our IPODS) The Liberation of Gabriel King.
Language Arts
We will continue along with our Making Meaning curriculum and tie in the book Niagara Falls, Or Does It? written by Henry Winkler (aka the "Fonz"). It is along the lines of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series, and the main character, Hank Zipzer has a learning difference.
Science
When we return we will check out our created ecosystems and see how different elements affected them. We used vinegar for acid rain, miracle grow for fertilizer and rock salt as well!
There is no official homework over the vacation, but an extra trip to the "prize box" will happen for those students who complete 6, 15 minute Lexia sessions in addition to 6, 15 minute Symphony Math sessions. Don't worry....I have the ability to check over the vacation if you go on (and complete the work) or not.
