Hoping for Spring

On this very snowy day in April, we are hoping for spring to show up sooner rather than later! We drew flowers with a butterfly on it. The students enjoyed paying close attention to the directions for their drawing and then later coloring their masterpiece.

Jazz Band

The West De Pere High School Jazz Band came to school today. The students learned a lot about the different instruments that are used in the Jazz Band. The Jazz Band performed four different songs. The students enjoyed listening and watching the band perform.

Persuasive Writing

In writing, the students are working on persuasive writing. This week they worked on writing about why their spring break was the best. They had lots of fun sharing their persuasive writing with each other and listening to all of the fun things people did over break!

Bee-Bots

We had a lot of fun using Bee-Bots today in the classroom. Bee-Bots are a type of programmable robot. Mrs. Gossen came in today to teach us more about Bee-Bots. The Bee-Bot can be placed on a grid. We decided to place either analog or digital times on the grid. The students then took turns making the Bee-Bot go to a certain time on the grid.

Watercolor Painting

The students had a blast creating their own work of art this week. I put masking tape on a piece of card stock prior to them painting. The students then used watercolors to paint their card stock. Once it was dry, I peeled the masking tape off. These will be entered into a contest for a local dentist office. They will be choosing some winners and using them to decorate their office!

Check out their works of art!
