We enjoyed making 3-D art for our Cinderella stories. For example, you draw your Cinderella character. Then, you color the background. Also the cool part is you get to cut out the 3-D part so your character can stand up. In conclusion, it was fun to illustrate our own Cinderella story. Have you ever tried making 3-D art?

Mrs. Petuya found a dead moth. While walking, she found a dead moth and brought it to the classroom. We analyzed and we used a magnifier. We know that it was a female because it had green eggs that were coming out from the bottom. The moth was medium size. Why are moths so hairy? Did you know that sometimes when moths lay eggs, they die? Why did the moth die? Are moths mammals? In conclusion, it was fun learning about the moth.

Our class worked in small groups to develop informative and interesting blog posts. We hope you enjoy our first efforts. We would love to have you make a comment and keep the conversation going. We will answer you when we return in May.

We have been very busy learners this trimester and are excited to show off our work on Tuesday, April 1st. We hope you are able to stop by for a tour of our room. Our door will be open from 4:00 P.M. to 7:00 P.M. We have arranged for a special feature for this event. If you have an iPhone or iPad, download “Aurasma”, a free app, and bring the device with you. You will be amazed! You’ll have to wait until Tuesday to find out what we have planned. 😀
This Wednesday is Digital Learning Day. It is a nationwide movement to bring technology and education together. Teachers all over the country are sharing ideas and making plans for a day that focuses on how to bring the best of technology to the classroom.
I can scarcely believe our year together is ending this week. It has been my joy and privilege to have spent the year with such a clever, creative, and kind group of children. Every day there was a new challenge to tackle and the students learned to do more than they thought they could. It is so rewarding to see them learn and grow and achieve. Most of all I am humbled by their willingness to accept everyone and find ways to use each other’s strengths in whatever the assigned task. I will remember this year with joy in my heart. Thank you for the opportunity to have been your teacher.
Joyfully,
Mrs. Petuya
