100th Day of School

We had a lot of fun on the 100th Day of School.  We started the day by making 100 hats.  Each hat had ten strips of paper with ten stickers on each one because 10 x 10 = 100.  The students had fun using the stickers to make their hats.  They had to "Highlight almost a 100" root words and they wrote what they would do with $100 dollars.  During math time, they played a Race to 100 game and tried to show 100 different ways to make a 100.  At the end of the day, the students had time to build a 100 piece puzzle.  It was a fun day of learning!

Magic House Field Trip

The students had a great time at the Magic House.  They all worked very hard at their job site. The postal workers delivered the mail and other letters. When they took breaks, they had to cash their paychecks at the bank.  Then off they went to the market, restaurant, library, service center and ranger station.  Many students stopped by the Electric Company, the house, and the hospital.  It was a very busy community.
After working in the community, the students created a budget for their family.  We sure had a lot of fun while learning about "Working".

Junior Achievement Lesson

Mr. Shelton is teaching the Junior Achievement lesson on Our Community.  The students were very excited today because they made "donuts".  They tried "unit" production and "assembly line" production to see which was the best way to make "donuts".  It was fun and the students enjoyed eating real donuts provided by Mr. Shelton.
We're getting ready for our Magic House field trip.  Every student filled out a job application and after looking at the applications, they were assigned a job.  The students made their photo ID cards today so they can "cash" their paychecks.  Your child needs to bring a wallet, purse, or fanny pack to the field trip on January 24th so they have a place to keep the "money" they earn from their job.
