Whew! We made it through the first few weeks and we are hitting the ground running! Our first Science quiz was a big success and I can't wait to see how our test turns out next week! Our Fall Festival Friday night was a lot of fun and it was great to see so many families coming out to support our school and have a great time! Long Mill will start a cookie dough fundraiser this week so be on the look-out for more information coming home. Students will also begin DARE classes this week with Deputy Eddy and we will conclude their DARE class with a graduation on Tuesday, December 6 at 9:00 am.
Science -
We have started the year learning about Ecosystems. We have learned about the different types of biomes, how to categorize animals within an ecosystem and last week started learning about food chins and food webs. We will be having a food chain & food web quiz this Thursday. We will also have our Ecosystems test next Friday, September 30th. All Science tests will be given online on the chrome books. I will still be sending home their results on a paper attached to their agenda as soon as they become available.
Social Studies -
We will begin the year by talking about the different types of early American. We will learn about European and Spanish explorers as well as different Native American groups. We will discuss the early year of America and how they grew into the original thirteen colonies.
