Week of October 31st

We started the week off with our Halloween party & parade. Thank you for those who were able to come and those who sent in supplies. We had some spooky, scary, strong, sporty and nerdy costumes! Everyone was a bit tired on Tuesday!! For Fire Safety Month, an Avon Lake fireman came and talked to us about how to be safe at home and school. Just like we practice a plan at school, students were encouraged to have a safety and evacuation plan at home.

This week's Reading essential questions was What are features of different animal habitats? The three habitats that we read about were a prairie, the ocean and the river. Each habitat provides a home for plants and animals. Their needs including food and shelter are met in their habitats. In the prairie, prairie dogs build burrows as a form of shelter. The burrows have rooms just like a house! We built a large burrow on a classroom wall to illustrate the habitat. 

Students are bringing home the Topic 4 Review today. Please return in on Monday so we can review and take the assessment Tuesday. Here is the Answer Key :)
