March 20 in Room 11

• As a reward for good behavior and effort earned over time, the second graders in Room 11 got to watch A Bug's Life. It was a good follow up for their reading story about ants.
• The day started with Music.
• Students wrote their final paper about making cakes.
• Room 11-ers are learning about "study stamina." During certain times of the day, the teacher tallies up the number of minutes the entire class is completely quiet. If someone talks, the minute starts over. If the class can do five minutes of complete silence in the space of ten minutes, everyone gets a Hill Bill. It's a challenge, but they are learning and getting better at it.
• Many notes went home with students today: book orders, menus, school news, picture notices and a spelling list.
• Have a wonderful Spring Break! Let the sun shine!
