Ms. Littlefield and Ms. Wyman

Science/Social Studies: This week the children worked in small groups to learn more about and create a life-sized picture of one of the 17 penguin species.  When all of the groups are done creating the groups will be sharing their pictures and information they learned.
Reading:  We continue to integrate the topic of penguins into both our daily read-aloud and reading groups.   In reading groups we have been working with informational text about penguins and in our read-aloud we have been enjoying the fictional stories of Mr. Popper’s Penguins and Tacky.   We continue to build reading and spelling skills through the Fountas and Pinnell word study program. Recently we have been working on identifying vowel sounds in oo, oi, oy, ow, aw, and au words.

Mr. Hillger's 6th Grade

hillger1-26Last week was a big week for the SCS Spartans. At our first math-a-lon, the sixth graders came in second place with 133 points. Inter-Lakes took first place with 134 points and Gilford was right on our heels with 132 points. We were all very excited with our performance and are looking forward to the next math-a-lon in March. Thank you to all the parents who supported us with your presence and your vehicle.
Math: Both the sixth graders and the veterans are moving through their respective Unit 5 at a good clip. The veterans are currently making connections between decimals, fractions and percents.

Mrs. Petitti’s Primary Multiage Class

In writing we have been thinking about where ideas come from for our writing or in the books we read.  Students concluded that writing ideas come from…looking around and noticing things in the world, something that happened to them an experience or from their imagination.  We played a game called What if …where you think about something that isn’t really true, but you’d like to imagine or pretend it could be true.  We talked about the mark to show the reader, “I’m thinking for a minute.” It’s called an ellipsis. Children are exploring all three areas as they write in their writing journals.  The students started working on their individual time lines as a follow-up to the time line

Mr. Chapman’s Upper Multiage

The Upper Multiage students are currently enjoying their literature circles on books that revolve around the bond between humans and their dogs.  This week we held cross-group discussions to make connections between these different books and the techniques the authors used to weave gripping stories.
Writing:  This week we worked on planning our persuasive essays.  The students are working on building arguments based on facts, personal stories and common experiences.  Next week students will use their plans to begin crafting the first drafts.
Math:  The Upper Multiage Rookies are working on Everyday Math Unit 6.  The focus so far has been on developing strategies for dividing multidigit numbers.  We began using the partial-quotients method, which is similar to long division.
