Hello Crow Wing Families,
The rapidly changing weather has been a significant challenge for students as they attempt to dress for recess. Many kids are forgetting their boots, snow pants, indoor shoes, and other assorted outdoor gear as the weather warms and then dives back into winter. Please help your children prepare for school by making sure they have what they'll need for the forecasted weather and have a pair of shoes to wear in the classroom.
We have had multiple cases of influenza in our community. Please watch your children for flu-like symptoms. We are encouraging students to take water bottles home for washing frequently, use placemats for lunch, wash hands thoroughly, and get lots of sleep.
We will not have early work this week (Wednesday, January 24th) because we will be in a meeting. Early work will resume next week on January 31.
Things we're working on:
End of semester assessments (all grades)
Final round of storytelling competition (all grades)
4:
Personal Narrative final drafts
Convection Cycles in the Atmosphere
5:
Native Peoples Project - research and note taking
Coastal Wind Cycles
6:
Persuasive Essay rough drafts
Imaginary Island Topographic Maps
General reminders:
- Essay homework is posted on the class blog, which is linked below
- We have office hours Wednesday from 3:15-4pm. You can stop in to discuss your students' progress without an appointment.
- We will do our best to reply to urgent emails, but often cannot do so on the same school day. GRS expects faculty members to reply to emails within two school days.
- Students are invited to come in early on Wednesdays at 7:45am to work on projects or follow up work on which they need additional time or support.
Thank you for your ongoing support!
Andrea and Cate
