This has been a busy week. In Betsy's math class we have been working on perimeter and area of 2-dimensional shapes. In Kim's math class we have been working on microfinancing. The students have picked three different people to make loans to. We are using Kiva.

In Spanish we have been learning clothing vocabulary. In Computers we finished our Arts Festival invitations and are learning to use Excel and spreadsheets. We continue to work on "Cinderella" in Drama and Music. In Art we finished the first part of our Arts Festival piece.

We have a new poem on the board every day. We wrote a response to one about the differences between our "Inside Self, Outside Self."

In buddies this week we talked about kindness with our buddies in Beth's and learned about NASA in Ruth Ann's. We even shot off a rocket.

We will go to Emilie's farm tomorrow. Please remember to bring shoes for walking.
