Pioneer Day

Today was our Pioneer Day.  Students enjoyed visiting various stations where they learned about pioneer activities.  They learned how to spin wool into yarn, use a washing machine wringer,  "shave" with shaving cream and a lather brush, play with pioneer wooden toys, try out kitchen tools, and pan for gold.  Students stayed with Block 1 classes for the entire day, so this means that Block 2 students (my homeroom) did not yet take their test over Welcome to Chinatown.  They will be taking the test tomorrow.  Block 1 students were able to complete their story test.

On TUESDAY we will have our Midwest states/capitals test, including the Great Lakes.

Our silent letter spelling test is on Friday.

Permission slips have been sent home for a May 1 trip to Liberty Jr. High to watch an orchestra demonstration.
