Rocket Launcher Supplies, Writing, Science

In order to do our science lesson we need some supplies to build our ROCKET LAUNCHER. Please see the list to the left for materials needed. Please email me if you can bring in supplies or have questions.

Writing. We have been working on summarizing. Today we looked at movie reviews as one authentic use of summarizing. The kids have been assigned to write their own personal review of their favorite movie. They are working in groups of 2 or 3 to write their review. The goal is to publish these reviews on the blog. I'd like the students to research their movies for characters and events that they can add into their review. THANKS.

Science (2): For our regular science curriculum, we are beginning to learn about Estuaries. We're using estuaries to learn about how animals and their environment interact (a 5th grade standard). Each student will choose one estuary creature to research and report on in class.

I'm going to try allowing comments on the blog. If you'd like to make a comment feel free. This is a school so keep it safe. One thought is people could comment on the blog if they have an idea or volunteer for something. Thanks!
