Almost Time to Come Back to School!

Dear Crew,

I have missed you so much! I can't wait to see all of you on Tuesday and hear all about your adventures over spring break! Be thinking about what you will share during our whole crew Lightning Share time on Tuesday. We will also be writing an "I Noticed/I Wonder" paper about our spring break events, too. So start noticing and wondering about all the things you are reading, seeing, doing and learning on break.

We have so many exciting things coming up in these last 2 months of school. Let me tell you about just a couple of those things.

First we will go on our Spring Voyage to Castlewood Canyon to hike and rock climb. While I love all of our Voyages, this is my very favorite one. I think you will like it, too. Here is a sneak peek of some photos from a couple of years ago.






Plus, we will be starting our new Science Expedition called, "Down to Earth". We will be planting seeds and so much more during this Expedition. I am keeping the rest of this Expedition a surprise  - so no pictures.

We will be learning many new things in reading, writing and math. I have gathered lots of new books for us to browse and read through.




Our room is nice and clean and ready for you to return. I went in over break and cleaned out all of the cupboards and cabinets. I rearranged the furniture just a little bit. (Yes, you have new table groups!) Ms. Wendy even came up for a little while and helped me. Mr. Ken was cleaning, cleaning, cleaning over break, too. He even cleaned the carpets in our book room!




Someone even cleaned up the Lost and Found! If you are missing something, it should be much easier to find in our Lost and Found now!



I have had a nice break. I didn't go on any trips this time. I stayed home and hung out with friends, enjoyed the snow, read books and took care of my dog (with the two injured back legs - torn ACLs).






 See you soon!

Love,
Ms. Jill

More Reading with 6th Graders

This morning we read with Mr. Kenny's crew. We read them the books we wrote about animals and then we chose other books to read to them. Now we have read our animal books to two different audiences. We love sharing our writing!
