Dear Parents,
Just a reminder that all Civil War historical figure books and internet printouts are due on Monday, January 30, 2012. We've started note taking off our new internet source Ed1Stop. If you haven't checked it out please do so. There is so much information available. We also went to our Woodland School library today and many of the students were able to check out books on their historical figure. They have all been talked to about plagiarism and we are reminding them that this is going to be THEIR research report.
The Willy Wonka Jr. Play is still available to the public in San Carlos. There will be three performances this weekend. It is being performed by children the same age as our students that reside in San Mateo-Woodside. Well worth watching.
Also, please note that next Friday we will be flying to India on Pretendly Airlines. An indian costume will be brought home by each child on Thursday night. The students are to arrive at school in their Indian costume Friday morning with their Woodland School uniform in their backpack so that they can change after recess. All are welcome to attend this flight.
We hope that you are enjoying the progress your child is making with their cursive writing. They are so proud of themselves and are taking such pride in their writing.
Stefan: I LOVED the story, The Five Chinese Brothers, working on our Mondrian art in Mrs. Switkes' art class and playing Protect the Pin in P.E. with Coach Schneider.
Kenna: I really LOVED music and Miss Hamill, the story of the Five Chinese Brothers was very funny. Also working on our Mondrian art was great too!
Vicki: I really liked doing our painting project about Mohandas Gandhi, having Clara Barton be my historical figure for our Civil War research report is exciting and Mrs. Barulich.
Madeline: I really liked starting our new literature book: Sarah Plain and Tall, it's a little sad because Anna and Caleb do not have a mother. I also liked art class this week and the story of The Five Chinese Brothers was hilarious. Also, the Tiger Dance on the Smart Board was so funny!
Aidan: I really liked starting my note taking about Abraham Lincoln. Boy he failed a bunch of times but never let it stop him from moving forward. I also liked P.E., The Five Chinese Brothers and Mrs. Barulich!
Nathan: I liked science and working with the Gobstoppers, we each got to eat one after our experiment! I also liked The Five Chinese Brothers, the Tiger Dance on the smartboard for the Chinese New Years and learning about Mondrian art.
Rohan: I liked watching our Gobstoppers dissolve in science and determining the colors it produced, The Five Chinese Brothers was so funny and the Tiger Dance was cool!
Ivan: I liked the Tiger Dance for Chinese New Year, Mrs. Junaid coming in and talking to the class about the school they worked at in Pakistan. It was very nice of Mishal to bring us each a gift from the children of Pakistan. P.E. was a lot of fun too.
Oliver: I liked painting my Indian flag and writing about Gandhi, the Tiger Dance for Chinese New Year was super! The Five Chinese Brothers was very good.
Renee: I liked the Mondrian draft in art class, The Five Chinese Brothers, Mrs. Junaid's presentation of the school in Pakistan that they visited, science was fun watching our Gobstopper produce different colors and the Tiger Dance!
