Van Gogh Hallway Display

We are learning lots about Vincent Van Gogh this year!  In preparation for our parent-led Meet the Masters Program, our class looked at Van Gogh's Sunflowers piece and made our own interpretation!  We combined up with Mrs. H.'s class to make it really stand out.  I think it came out pretty cool and really brightened up our hallway :-)

Art Museum, Boise Philharmonic, Math Activities, Homework, and More!

I have not  been posting often enough, so I have a long one today to make up for lost time!

Homework
I have added a link under the homework page that will bring you to a homework folder.  You will find folders that have all of the assignments.  I will post and/or put the homework for the week in the weekly newsletter.  That way, if you are missing homework you can access it here (and know which assignments we are on!)

Boise Art Museum

We had a fabulous time at BAM!  Here are few a pictures from the art projects students did after the tour:

Fun Math Activity



We had fun working on a hands on math activity recently.  The kids thought I was crazy when I dumped 1,000 popsicle sticks on the ground!  Students then worked together to group them into groups of 10's and 100's so that we could easily count all the sticks on the ground!

Boise Philharmonic
We had a guest from the Boise Philharmonic come to our classrooms today and teach us a bit about music.  We learned how to listen to music and hear the story that it tells.  Our guest played the trumpet for us!
