There are so many great things happening at Douglas! Please read this entire update!
Boosterthon is up and going! Please help our class and the entire school by logging into funrun.com and registering! Our class has earned extra recess and crazy sock day! Crazy Sock Day will be Tuesday, 2/6. Remember Friday is an Early Release Day (dismissal is at 1:15). On Friday, we'll enjoy an informance with science collaborating with both music and dance. The informance is scheduled for 9:30. Also, on Friday, we'll have a Douglas Dance! Friday is packed with activity! In math, we're studying area and students will have a quiz on Wednesday to see how well they're understanding it. I'm also adding a project based learning enrichment to our lessons. Students will be applying their knowledge of area to build Tiny Houses modeled after the HGTV show. All houses will be three dimensional with furnishings and rooms selected by the student groups. This will be a fun challenge! Third graders will also work on targeted problem solving skills as we divide students on Wednesday and Thursday to work on addition and subtraction. In reading, students are enjoying our novel, Peter Pan. As we read this week, students will be discussing character traits and point of views of the characters. They will also synthesize their own thoughts and determine their own point of view. On Friday, students will be given an assessment. In science, we'll be doing two experiments and discussing how properties of matter can change. We'll have a short quiz on Thursday to check for understanding. Finally, Valentine's is just around the corner! Below I've listed the roster for our class. If possible, have your child write something special about each student or create a Valentine. We'll have an art celebration at the end of the day and swap Valentine's. I found a pop art activity for a craft. If you have a suggestion for a game, please send me an email! As always, you're welcome to attend. I'll start around 3 on Wednesday, February 14th. Names of our students: Jadiel Amber Justin Elijah Jacob Dilan Maggie Ainsley Oliver Grant Camden Brooklyn Corrie Libby Sammy Allison Ramel Journi Brianna Thank you for all you do, Amy Flowers [email protected]
