October 7 in Room 11

• Mr. Dunn taught about sandy beaches and showed pictures of animals that live there. He is a scientist who works and studies at the Oregon Institute of Marine Biology.
• We made pictures using congruent triangles
• Fire drill!!!! Mrs. Slack's kids were in the middle of finger painting. They went outside with very wet, orange hands. Mrs. Slack kept telling them to hold their hands over their heads so they wouldn't get paint on anything. Then Mr. Martin congratulated everyone on what a good job they did and told all the students to clap...
• Mrs. Stebbins had to squash some inquisitiveness about spiders, as they were being collected, observed and discussed during math class.
• One of our vocabulary words is "released." Soon we will be releasing our butterflies, which hatched and are strengthening their wings, getting ready to fly away.
• In music, we sang about black cats, pumpkins and candy.
