Dear families of A204,
What will students be doing next week?
Next week will be very exciting in room A204! We will be doing science every day for most of the day. Students will be doing multiple investigations to learn about what it would be like to go on a ride on the water cycle on the “H2O Flow Zone.” We will learn about different parts of soil, erosion, water-flow and more as we build terrariums and stream tables. Miss Holck will be in the classroom every day from March 23 until June 12, so this is a great opportunity to do science with two teachers in the room.
How will my student’s learning be assessed?
- He or she will help create a classroom chart where students will write what they know, want to know, and what they learned.
- He or she will analyze photographs of the interactions of land and water.
- He or she will take a test at the end of the unit to analyze two different experiments.
What can I do to be involved with my student’s learning?
Homework: Since the classroom activities will be a little different next week, the homework will be a little different, too. Students will be asked to make notes about specific things they see in their neighborhoods and I invite you to help them do these assignments.
Volunteer: These investigations can be a little complicated and messy, so if you are able to volunteer in the classroom, this would be a great week to do so. Please fill out the bottom of this page and have your student bring it in tomorrow.
Look Online: A204 now has a website at a204emerson.blogspot.com. I encourage you to cut out the reminder and stick it on your fridge or near a computer if you have one!
If you are available to help or have any questions or concerns, please contact Miss Holck or Mr. Wong by phone, email, or just dropping by before or after school.
Sincerely,
Miss Holck & Mr. Wong
