Highlights of the Week

We worked on identifying halves in math.

We practiced how to split shapes into equal parts.

Miss Lee, our OM KIDS teacher, helped us learn about mindful breathing, taking time to listen to our bodies and relax our busy minds.  The kids responded so well to her over the four sessions.

Students practiced drawing loons with a step by step drawing guide.

These students are in the final phase of the loon project; designing their poster!

Here is the graphic organizer we are using to take notes about each bird we study.

Students are working in various stages of their loon project.

Part of the process was editing and checking your facts for mechanics (capitals, spelling, periods).

Students used a checklist to keep the on track and moving forward with the project throughout the week.
