We've got the Beat!

We all had a chance to play musical instruments in harmony.  We then sang and danced to an old African welcoming song.  Fun! Fun! Fun!  In math the students are getting much more comfortable and confident using past knowledge to solve new problems.  Their critical thinking skills and strategies are improving. 

The fifth-grade class put on a very educational presentation for the whole elementary school at our monthly assembly. Everyone contributed to explaining human migration and how the first people to inhabit North America arrived.  They provided visual posters and an oral timeline with some very interesting social-studies facts.

Mrs. Hussey led the school in a Happy Birthday song for all of the September birthdays.

The class took a short walk with their Kinderbuddies to the preschool on the corner to make new friends - Preschool buddies - and read stories with each other.  The fifth-grade community continues to grow.
