Week of Feb 17, 2009

Tuesday Notes:  We played with a GI-normous parachute in gym class today.  Our new vocabulary is redundant:  I’m so happy and glad!  That bug is tiny and small!  Get the picture?

We read, and took notes, about Olaudah Equiano today.  He was a very brave and very famous writer in the 1700’s.  We also learned about the connections between multiplication and division.  A good time was had by all!

Wednesday Notes:  We read about Abraham Lincoln, our 16th president today in our Time For Kids magazine.  After lunch, we worked on our “zines” and wrote about what we imagine an IDEAL SCHOOL would be like.  Everyone worked hard at writing time.  Well done, 306’ers!

Friday Notes:  We’ve read about two great Americans, Phyllis Wheatley and James Fortens this week.  We also read an article about President Obama’s plan to send more troops to Afghanistan.  We learned more about early settlers in Monroe County during social studies class.  The fish on top of our courthouse has been around for a long time!
