Halloween Party

Please send your child with food from your tribe for tomorrows Party. The Northwest Coastal tribe will be providing us with Smoked salmon and dried berries. It is fine to use your imagination and have certain food items represent Native food. In years past we have students bring jerky, buffalo meat, pemmican, a jello brain, berries, juice, squash, corn bread, and other interesting foods. Also students may ask for materials they may need to build their homes. Blankets or sheets. Also remember students are welcome to wear their costume all day as long as it has to do with their tribe.

Thanks,

Justin

Dear Parents,

It has been an awesome week. To begin with we finished our work on the human body. We learned how the body moves. Our body uses muscles and ligaments to make our bones move. The bones have joints between them. Some of the joints are called, ball and socket, universal, hinge joints. Can you believe that our blood is from the largest bone in our body called the femur. Another thing we did this week is begin to create our native mask. It is going to be so cool. We will make them in art next week .If you want to help please let Mr. Grillo know.



Sincerely,


Third Grade Students

Please Read

Well folks the good people who represent us have done it again, education has a new set of standards to follow. For the last ten or so years we have been learning and aligning our curriculum to state set standards and now they are being replaced by "Common Core" standards. I suggest you browse this website and see what it is in the works. You might have noticed my plan book has standards attached to most of the lessons. These are the common core standards that we are beginning to use and the state test will eventually be aligned to.
