PICS FROM 6/12, 6/12 and 6/13

Books for Bikes Winners...

Thank you Mechanics Lodge of Orono!

We love to build and create!

A very cool ocean share!

Our radishes were ready to pick!!

We cleaned them up and gave them to the VCS kitchen.

They put them in our salad on Thursday!

We watched the 8th grade do their egg drop!

Neither group found a way to save their egg.

We're already thinking about how they could 

have made their egg carrier stronger :)!

We were treated after to a little

"rain shower". It was perfect on a hot day!

Some were a little more wet than others

but we all had fun!! :)

CIRCUS, CIRCUS PICTURES

 Cast Party...clown sundaes :)!

HAPPY WEEKEND!

GRADES 1-2 NEWS 6-8-18

Hi! What a great show last night!! Thank you to all that came

and supported us. The kids worked so hard and loved having
the chance to perform for you! I couldn’t be more proud of them!

We started a new mini unit this week on the ocean. We happened
to be talking about ocean animals and everyone seemed really
interested in finding out more so I pulled out all the ocean books.
I’ve been reading them the book, Andre. They might have asked
you if you ever saw the famous harbor seal when you were little.

We learned some new tricks on the Chrome books! We know how
to use Comic Writer and Word Art. They are bookmarked on my
portaportal page if you want to check them out at home. Password
is VSC2.

Thank you to everyone who sent in items for our cast party. The
clown sundaes were a big hit!

We would like everyone to wear their Circus, Circus t-shirt on
our last day of school, Friday, June 15th. We are going to have
a signing party.

This is our last newsletter of the year.  It has been absolutely wonderful
working with your children this year. They are a great group of kids and
I will miss spending my days with them! Please keep your kids reading
this summer. Also, don’t forget about the Library and MakerSpace being
open on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Happy Almost Summer!

PICS FROM WEEK ENDING 6-1-18

Looking and sounding great at our Spring Concert!

HAPPY WEEKEND!

GRADES 1-2 NEWS 6-1-18

Hi! Can you even believe it is June 1st?! Ten school days left. Where
has this year gone? Our musical is getting better each day! We can’t
wait to share it with you next Thursday at one of our two performances
(1:00 and 6:00) in the gym!

We did a couple of fun writing projects. We decorated pineapples and
wrote about our favorite thing about Grades 1-2. We also wrote a summer
acrostic poem.

We have lots of reading going on. I save my favorite book unit for
last...Song books! We are having fun reading Iza Trapani books.
She is a Russian author that takes the tune of children songs and
rewrites the words to make a story. We’ve also enjoyed many other
authors. A favorite this week has been PUFF THE MAGIC DRAGON.
