A note went home today explaining the work that needs to be completed by Wednesday, June 17th. I am asking that you sign it and return it to school so I know you are aware. Here is a link to the note if you haven't seen it. The middle school Band and Chorus concert is this Wednesday. Bug Works will be visiting on Thursday so students will need to bring water boots/mud boots because we will be in the stream collecting bugs to determine our water quality. Field Days is Friday and sneakers are required. Water bottles and sun block are a good idea also. Our ECHO field trip is next Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday are normal days and Thursday is the last (half) day of school.

Last week we started planning the outdoor garden by the high tunnel. Every student created a garden based on the square footage of 1,595 sq. ft. Yesterday and today we staked it out and cleaned it up! We are also starting our Water Unit. We will focus on the Lake Champlain Basin. Students were able to choose from 4 Ecological Mysteries written by Jean Craighead George. They read the first chapters today. They were so quiet and involved in their books! Below are some videos of what we have been doing and a link to Jean Craighead George's website.

Math-sheet 96, Week 11, or TTM
Read for at least 30 minutes.
We read articles from Scholastic Scope today and practiced our "close" reading. Close reading is careful reading and rereading of a text to understand the features and language used. It is very useful, but very different than what we did when we were in school. We are asking students to use higher level thinking earlier in their school careers so we need to give them lots of practice to use higher thinking when reading. My school years pretty much asked me to read and find the answers in the text. Now we are asking students to read many texts, analyze the information, and then synthesize the information to form a conclusion.
Summarizing vs Synthesizing Here is a video showing the students reading.

Read for at least 30 minutes. We talked today about how reading is so important to being a strong learner. The more developed your vocabulary the easier time you will have learning new things. If your child hates to read, and we have a few in our room who do not like it, then expose him or her to different kinds of reading. Newspapers, magazines, non-fiction, or biographies. Go to Barnes and Noble and browse through the different kinds of books. I am always willing to help a child find a book he or she will enjoy.

Before vacation we were having some issues regarding honesty, responsibility, and respectfulness. Today we discussed a quote having to do with integrity.
- No matter how educated, talented, rich, or cool you believe you are, how you treat people ultimately tells all. Integrity is everything.
We looked up the meaning of integrity which led us to look at the definitions for ethics and morals. We will continue this discussion tomorrow. We also discussed how integrity does not mean we act perfect. We are all going to make mistakes, but it is how learn from mistakes that matter the most. Mistakes are the best learning opportunities.

I was out yesterday to go to Clifton Park for my stepdad's surgery. He was admitted for an overnight observation so I stayed with my mom and drove up to school this morning. The students surprised me with cards and a cake for my birthday (which was yesterday). Thank you so much Mrs. Dunn for organizing this and Mrs. Fournier for making the beautiful and delicious cake. It was exactly what I needed after the stressful day we had yesterday. My mom and I were in the hospital all day.
