This week Ms. Sain's class has been continuing to work with place value and began working with comparing and ordering! With their table teams, they completed a matching/ordering game called “Get Your Ducks in a Row”. They had to match the birds by type and then order them from least to greatest!
Happy that it's Friday!
Ms. Pullen’s class did a book tasting. They were able to read a book until a timer went off, only getting a “taste”
of the full story. Students used flexible seating and ate snack as they rotated around the room. After, they answered questions about their book of choice.
Ms. Faeth’s class explored science SOL 5.7b by combining various substances and determining if they are a mixture or solution. If students created a mixture, they had to work together to find the best way to separate the two materials.

More fun things that are happening at #spes!
We are learning about properties of matter in science - texture, size, shape, color - and today we added in some big science words “transparent,” “translucent,” and “opaque.” We had an investigation into all sorts of different items - trying to see how much light came through with our flashlights.
Ms. Alexander’s class is having so much fun with math! They are working on place value; they’re showing numbers in standard form, expanded form and building them with base ten blocks.
Just a reminder that there is no school tomorrow, Friday, September 2nd and Monday, September 5th! Enjoy your break!
Students are making their own faces with Ms. Daniels!
Mrs. Addy's 2nd graders have been learning about different types of forces. They made predictions and recorded the results to decide which objects were attracted to magnets. The students also designed "carts" to travel down a zipline to see gravity in action.
Mrs. deVries’s class decorated their own buckets after learning how to be a “Bucket Filler.” Our kind words and actions will fill up the buckets of those around us. We are rocking our Be Kind rule!
Reminder: 5th grade band “Pick Your Instrument Night” tonight and tomorrow from 6 to 8pm at CMS in the cafeteria (you only need to attend one night).
