Chronicles by Ethan and Laken

This week in science we are investigating a mysterious powder that was placed all over Dexter School playground… So first we decided to look at different powders to see what they look, smell and feel like! When we were finally allowed to look at the mysterious powder it almost looked like a mixture of a bunch of powders O_O This powder is getting on my nerves now…
          Anyway, in Social Studies we are studying different explorers who made a big difference in U.S. history such as C.C. (Christopher Columbus), John Cabot, Henry Hudson, and Mr. Ponce De Leon. In NaNoWriMo most of us are makin’ much progress. But if your child hasn’t started yet I would encourage them to do so…

Cool Chronicles by Avery and Logan

Hey! Its Avery,

This week we have early release on Thursday due to teacher-parent conferences. We also took a field trip to west high to see a play called “The Man Who Planted Trees”. Also, we watched a video on voting and how we can go vote!!!

BYE!!

HEY! Its Logan here,

Today we learned about how Hurricane Sandy effected the voting poles and now a lot of people missed out on voting. There was a shortage of staff at the poles in Miami, and now lots of people aren’t allowed to vote anywhere near they’re house.

Bye.

Quick Questions, and don’t cheat!

Is a flat land area close to sea level called a plain or a plateau?

 Why are camels able to survive in desert?

REMINDERS

***FIELD TRIP MONDAY MORNING!****  Students will leave with other 5/6 graders to West High on a field trip to see the performance, "The Man Who Planted Trees."  We will be leaving soon after students arrive to school (8:30) and will be returning before lunch.

MONTH OF NOVEMBER - Change in the Schedule:

For the month of November, Mrs. Brownlee's 5th graders and our class will be taking 20 minutes after lunch each day to practice typing. "Type to Learn" or "TTL" will be used, in the media center, under the guidance of Ms. Madden. I look forward to the students getting the opportunity to practice their typing and feel confident with word processing skills as well.

NO SCHOOL FRIDAY for students.  This Thursday afternoon and Friday, Parent-Teacher Conferences are scheduled with Hoover teachers. I look forward to sharing updates and learning celebrations with you all.

No school November 21, 22, and 23 for holidays.
