Highlights of the week for Jules

 

I liked looking between the two pictures and seeing the difference.  I am really good at it because I have magazines that have the same game.  

 

My highlights of the year are the allergy assembly and learning in my classroom.  I love the motions for Eagle Watch, Chunky Monkey, Stretchy Snake, Owl Eyes, and Skippy Frog.  I think everyone is a decoding dolphin.  The highlights of the week have been  PE, Art and library.  I like art because we get to paint and draw. I like PE because we get to exercise.  And I like library because I get to pick out a good book.

Highlights of the week for Sebastian

 I really liked my reading group because we got a really good book.  Um, we got a book about a mummy mystery.  I really liked the people in my group because we are smart.

The pajama party was really fun.  And I really liked the stuffies that people brought.  OK.  And, I really liked the movies that we watched; it was really funny.  Ms. Nelson's Field Day and Ms. Nelson comes back.  

 In Keiko Sensei's class, we brought our stuffies outside.  I played a game where people were chasing us around and we were attacking them with our stuffies.  It was a tie at the game.

Highlights of the week for Lily

We had lots of fun doing our growth mindset with Mr. Posner, our substitute teacher.  We found out our reading levels for reading workshop.  I love my new books!  We got into our new small reading groups; I like my group mates and we got our reading group book.  My book is called The Case of the Mummy Mystery.  We learned to read with expression and lots of strategies for reading.  We wrote small moments for writing.  I wrote about my birthday.

We had an allergy assembly.  I love the assembly, the songs were really fun.  The singer had puppets too.  They were funny songs.

Highlights of the Week for Twyla

Highlights of the week for Lauren

My highlights of the week was PE and art, and library.  I have lots of fun in PE.  Thinking about the class charter was fun. I enjoyed practicing reading this week. 

The folders were fun getting made.  I drew a person reading next a tree.  I think a bunch of folders pop out like when people put a bunch of color on it. 

Highlights of the first full week for Theo

 The highlight of this week were going to PE.  In PE, we played this game called Castle.  It was pretty fun.  The Me-Tee watercolor was really fun.  I just kinda put random colors all through.  And reading. 

Ian’s Trip to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Park

Ian’s Trip to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Park

  During my summer break my parents and I went to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Park. At Yellowstone I saw lots of animals such as bison, black bears, elk and mule deer. Once a bison crossed the road right in front of our car. Bison can weigh as many pounds as a small car! I also got to see a bear and her 2 cubs climbing a tree.  I was about 25 feet away from them, which was close.

  Later I saw Old Faithful. Old Faithful is one of the many geysers. It is a hydro thermal feature. Old Faithful spews water up into the air every 60 -90 minutes. Old Faithful’s highest spew was 126 feet tall. That is as tall as a 12 and a half story building!

   In Grand Teton National Park I saw lots of mountains. The mountains look a lot like the mountains we have around Seattle. On 7/5/14 I went on an alpine slide. It was awesome! An alpine slide is a concrete slide on the side of a mountain. You go up a chairlift to get to the top of the mountain and then you ride this cart thing down the mountain on the concrete slide. It was a blast! #1ride! I couldn't get our video link to work.

  I recommend going to these national parks because they are really beautiful. If you go to either park, I hope you have a good time.
