7-6-5

What a great week we are having!  Let me get you caught up on our Balloon Popping activities:

Our #7 Balloon was Beach Day!!

Our #6 Balloon was a Popsicle Party!! 

Our #5 Balloon today was a Paper Airplane Contest!!

We tried to make one ourselves first, and tested these in the classroom.

Then we watched a YouTube video and created better ones.  We tested these out in the hallway!

Then Miss Records tested out her airplane against the classroom winner... and it was a tie!

Congrats to Austin for creating the best paper airplane!

Boomer Convocation:  Tomorrow is our Boomer (from the Pacers) convocation.  He will be here to talk about healthy living, and will also be doing a Slam Dunk Show!  To show our support of Boomer, and the Pacers in their playoff run, tomorrow will be Pacers Spirit Wear Day!  If you don't have anything Pacers, feel free to wear yellow and blue!

Superkids and Math:  We are finishing up our last unit in Superkids (Zz) and our last chapter of math.  There will be one more fluency builder coming home tomorrow and our last math Homelink will also be coming home tomorrow!

Power Writing:  The kids have spent the last few weeks working on writing a fun story.  We have talked about Power Writing and how we put sentences together to form a story.  Our P1 is our main idea, then we us P2 sentences to support our story.  The kids wrote a story based on a book we read in class, "What If You Had Animal Hair?"  The kids each chose their own animal and wrote about what it would be like to have hair like this animal.  These were so much fun to write and are hanging in the hallway.  You will be able to see them next week at Kindergarten Graduation!

DIBELS Scores:  Your child is coming home with their DIBELS scores for reading today.  We finished the math testing today and those scores will be coming home on Friday!
