skills at his or her level of understanding. Some students are finishing
work from class time, and others have a new sheet. Please read the 4thGrade Math letter for more details about general homework expectations.
Today in Strawberry Creek:
Today was a busy day in Strawberry Creek. We had a
first PE class on the park's tennis courts, followed by a school-wide fire drill.
All the students did a wonderful job during the fire drill. The 4th graders had
their first day of Spanish today, while the 5th graders explored some of their
favorite things to do during Writer's Workshop. After the park and recess, the
5th graders went to Spanish while the 4th graders delved into Writer's
Workshop. This afternoon was our first Buddy Day the kindergarten and first
graders of Laurel Creek. The 4th and 5th graders entered Laurel Creek with a
puzzle piece and found their corresponding buddy piece. After getting to know
each other for a couple minutes, the buddies helped decorate calendar numbers
for Strawberry Creek's Wall Calendar. It was great to see the "big"
buddies interact with their "little" buddies throughout the class
period. We finished our time with our buddies by creating a secret handshake.
