Our final 9 days together.
Today’s biggest events:
Technology time where we voted for our final three monthly attribute awards. Students had to select a student that best personified:
Cooperation
Do Your Best
Honest
We also discussed the 10 options that we have Thursday’s Fine Arts assembly. Students then went on-line and voted for their top options.
Students then studied for tomorrow’s final exam with all 50 states and capitals.
A few students, extra props for Kyle, then read and responded to any article about things that we will no longer need or use in 10 years.

60 to 75 minute disaster practice.
We had the students, teachers and all administrators practice how to respond if we have an earthquake. We practiced walkie-talky communication, first aid, search&rescue, and how to proceed with specific logistics.
The students handled it as a serious matter and they represented themselves well.
3rd Trimester Math:
All 5th graders need to take a math assessment. I realize that we haven’t thought of math for over an entire week. Therefore I told students just to try their best and their results will only be used for grading if it helps them.
Lewis and Clark:
We discussed how Lewis and Clark made a great partnership because they were so different. We also discussed Lewis’ battles with what is now called bipolar disorder.
Finally we had a ton of fun discussing Rush’s Thunderbolts.

PE
The students used their PE time to practice for next week’s promotion ceremony.
Now there is only 8 more days :(
Kind regards,
Mr. Hubbard
Homework for the week:
Freewrite -- “This summer I will.....”
Return to me by Friday.
Reading Around the World -- get those pages signed off so they can go into the official record books. Seriously their pages read get factored into their reading grades.
RETURN to me by Friday.
