CLASS NOTES

I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season & winter break. This past week we finished our NW Animal reports and held the “Quiz Show”. We also spent time working in the computer lab creating various polygons with “Geologo”.

After winter break we will wrap up our Huk-Toocht Storyline and get ready for our next class Storyline adventure. I have asked the students to continue reading over the break and be prepared to give a book talk on the book they’ve read.

FIELD TRIPS

Last Friday we went to Sellwood Park and released our salmon.

We also investigated the habitat they’ll live in.

Testing the water.

More water testing

Away they go!

AUCTION

The CSS auction is set for March 11, 2006 and it’s never too soon to start thinking about or gathering items for bid. If you have ideas or questions jot them down and I can pass them along to the auction committee.

DATES TO REMEMBER

Dec. 16th – Jan. 2nd Winter Break, see you back on Jan. 3rd
