Week in Review

Last week, we were visited by a real turkey buzzard, redtail hawk and screech owl from the Oregon Zoo. Their handler told us their stories and we got to touch some cleaned and preserve bird artifacts, including talons and the wing of a great horned owl! We made our own raptors and decorated them after the real birds with feathers. Almost all of us have the Raptors Raptors poem memorized!

In math, we worked with symmetry, creating symmetrical monsters. We defined Mean, Median, Mode and Range, and are beginning to learn how to calculate them!

In writing, we began choosing poems to share that we enjoy and continued to draft and revise out work.

We are preparing to perform a students written letterland play for Mrs. Dunton's class. Parents may come watch our play on TUESDAY, FEB 2, at 12:00pm, if they wish.
