Well, it has been an eventful couple of weeks in the Agency! We have been working hard on our Mythology unit, learned a bit about the Classics project, have been introduced to three different strategies to add/subtract, and have been plugging along in our class novel - Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief. The students have finished their beginning of the year diagnostics, and I will be using that data to help inform my instruction this quarter. I will start having some early parent conferences toward the end of the month, so please keep an eye out for an email.
I'm also planning our grade-level study trip to the Feast of the Hunter's Moon! Our grade will be visiting the fort and its grounds to learn about what life was like for the people living in the area during the 18th century. It's a wonderful opportunity for them to have some hands-on learning experiences! Informational fliers will be coming home soon.
We are in need of a few materials for our current Science unit. If you would like to donate some items, please check out the sign-up HERE. Any support is very much appreciated!
FYI- our class shirts should be done by September 26th. I will be handing them out in class as soon as they are delivered. Thank you for helping our classroom's community spirit!
