Science:
The Fifth Grade Science Fair project has been assigned. Students were given a packet that included instructions and expectations. They will be given work time in class each week (Mondays) to work on it and everyone is expected to complete a project. The due date is April 25th, which is the same day as Cascadia's Science and Engineering night. This is to facilitate students using the same project for both if they want to. We are encouraging students to participate in the Science and Engineering night but it is not mandatory. If you have any questions feel free to contact Mr. Hill at jdhill@seattleschools.org.

Field Trips:
Anticipation for the upcoming Wrinkle In Time field trip is building. Students are reading the book with Mr. Brown. We now have enough chaperones and we thank you for volunteering. It should be a great day. Permission slips were emailed out yesterday but paper copies will be sent home Friday. Keep a lookout, so we can get them in.

The PMR or Pacific Marine Research field trip is coming up in April. For Mr. Hill's and Mr. Brown's class is going with Holman on the 6th. Here is a link to the website if you want to check it out. (This is a change from previous announcements)

We have collected a good portion of the money needed for Camp in June. Most people have sent the first check but an additional $200 is needed. If we could get them before Spring break, we would be set to go. If you need assistance with this, just send an email to Laura at lremme@seattleschools.org.

Thank you so much.

Weekly Updates 2/2/18

       hello parents this week in class we are doing a James town simulation. we are also doing shake-spear's twelfth night. "If music be the food of love play on. give me excess of it that, surfeiting the appetite may sicken, and so die"

      in  shake-spear we are memorizing duke Orsino's speech, hear it is
"If music be the food of love, play on
 give me excess of it that, surfeiting
the appetite may sicken and so die
that stain again, it had a dying fall
oh, it  came o'er my ear like the sweet sound
that breaths upon a bank of violets"

      in the James-town simulation we have all bean traveling for eleven weeks and we are nearly at america. (yes) unfortunately we had a mutiny. different groups did different things in response and we are still wasting for the results of our decision.


thank you for reading the blog
