Math: The students are enjoying our November Math Work Places. These games involve using Pattern Blocks to make new shapes; such as: 6 triangles can make a hexagon. The students learned how to play Shut the Box!

Science and Global Citizenship: We continued our study of force and motion. The students worked in cooperative groups to rotate through different stations that explore how objects move and how we can affect their movement with different forces.
Special Activity: We sang with The Friendly Pirate on Wednesday afternoon!
Guidance: We learned that feelings can change. We learned that friends can feel the same or different about things that are important to us. The students loved role playing with Mrs. Ferguson - The Queen of Feelings! We practiced using Kelso's Wheel to compromise and solve small problems.
