Making 2-D Plane Figures

Today in Math class, we used pretzel sticks and mini-marshmallows to make 2-D plane figures(polygons) such as triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, and octagons. We talked about the properties of each of the figures. After we made the models, we had a tasty snack! Who knew that polygons could be so yummy?????

Report Cards: January 23, 2012

Just a reminder to students and parents that report cards WILL be sent home on Monday, January 23, 2012. All of the grades that students are getting now will be for the third nine weeks. Weekly behavior grades are also recorded to get a cumulative conduct grade for the nine weeks!

JAMESTOWN

4th and 5th grade students will be able to attend a fieldtrip on March 30, 2012 to Jamestown BUT they are reminded about what Mrs. Tucker announced: you have to have GOOD behavior to qualify! Teachers have been keeping a list of inappropriate behaviors that would disqualify you to attend! Don't let bad behavior take away this great opportunity!!!!

Martin Luther King, Jr. Day On Monday!

No school on Monday, January 16, 2012.

Team Day Was Today!!!!!!!

Well, we had our very first Team Day of the year and those that got to participate had an AWESOME time! We had a LOT of students who worked hard this past nine weeks and had 110 points or more......some had over 400!!!!! They were able to watch a movie, play games, talk, get on the computers, play Wii, eat snacks, and spend the day having fun with their friends and teachers. We had 16 people in Detention who did not have the points and we certainly hope they learned their lesson and will behave properly this nine weeks! We'd LOVE to have the entire 5th grade attend the next Team Day! WORK HARD and BEHAVE!!!!! We start collecting points for the next Team Day on Tuesday (January 17th!)
