Garden

Just wanted to brag on our Boys To Men Club. These boys have worked all year on different things, including how to act in social settings, how to tie a tie, how to build a bird house and how to grow a garden (and many more). The garden includes roman lettuce, tomatoes, peppers, cabbage and squash. They have taken care of it from bringing to end. I can't wait to try some of the yard work they have put in. It been so exciting to see these boys begin to grow into young men this year. A BIG THANKS to Mr. Bogozan and Mr. Clark for leading this club and these boys!!!! 

End of Year Review

It's the time of year where we are wrapping things up and reviewing what we've learned all year. It's fun to see all the amazing progress each of the students have made since the beginning of the year!!!! 

Flash Masters

The students really enjoyed playing with some of our new technology. We received some Flash Masters to help students with math fact fluency (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division). 

Special Guest

Today during Math Lab with Mr. Bogozan, the kids had a special guest from the nearby Methodist Church. He came in today to see what it's like as a teacher for a day. 

Pollution

We have just started our unit on pollution and and its effects on the environment. We are testing the effects of clean water, oily water and salty water on the growth of lima beans and green beans. Today we planted our beans and put the three types of water in 3 different cups with soil and beans. We will water these plants over the next few weeks and see what happens. Ask you children about what resources we used today and what their predictions are for this experiment. Check back to find out if your or your child's predictions were correct. You can also talk about the types of resources we use each and everyday. 

Math Review!!!

This is what math review looks like. Group work is amazing because students can bounce ideas off each other and help each other remember what they have learned all year!! Testing is just a few weeks away!!!
