January 10 - January 14

We have a late start this Wednesday the 12th. School opens at 10:00, and classes start at 10:20.

Media Literacy

Media Literacy will be cut a bit short this week, due to the late start and the last stage of MAP testing on Monday and Tuesday. Classes that meet will continue on prior projects: entering their fitness test results, organizing their server folders, and working on their sports research project.

P.E.

All three grade levels are beginning the dance unit this week in PE. Third graders are beginning with some simple, but fun dances: the Hamster Dance, and the Partner Slap dance (hopefully the kids aren't disappointed that they don't actually slap their partner :-), they just clap their hands together). Fourth graders will start with Mamma Maria, which is a basic line dance, and follow up with the Cupid Shuffle, which gets slightly more complicated. Fifth graders will also be doing the Cupid Shuffle, followed by the Butterfly Waltz. It should be fun! We'll most likely be continuing to practice these next week, as it takes time to master the steps.
