Happy Friday!
Today the students did really well on their spelling tests! Great job everyone. We also finished building our catamaran boats and enjoyed seeing how much load they could carry with a single pontoon and then a double. A big theme of today was talking about Growth Mindset. We discovered that when our brains think thoughts like: I just can't do this or I can't make this better or My plan didn't work..... We can challenge those thoughts with things like: Maybe I can try or I can always improve or I can ask for help. We also did art that reflects these new positive thoughts. We turned our self-portraits into gardens that grow flowers. The flowers represent our good growing thoughts!! Next week we will be participating in Earth Week as a school! There is a class challenge which we hope to win! In order to win we need your help! Please don't pack any garbage in lunches next week because the class with the least garbage wins an Earth Day party on Thursday. Use reusable containers or cloth/mesh bags to pack food. Thanks!
