7/3/2015 0 Comments Summer Fun!Hello All!
I hope your summer has been relaxing and fun. My summer has been a time of recharging my batteries and creativity. I have also been learning about the new Science and Social Study standards that Arkansas has adopted. For Social Studies: We will be studying up to the time of 1500 AD. Meaning we will learn about Ancient Egypt, Cave paintings, and Medieval times....probably not in that order...and many more. Additionally, we will be learning about economics and financial literacy by way of a super cool video game! Yes, I promise they will be learning..sneaky, sneaky... For Science: The standards are completely different except for a few tiny things. However, I will spend this coming year (2015-2016, WOW that seems like the future doesn't it?!) teaching the things I have taught in years past. We will have a ton of fun all the while I will be infusing my Science curriculum with even MORE activities and creative challenges! Woot! I wish you all to have an amazing rest of the summer and I cannot wait to see you all at Open House and the first day of school! Until then, remember to wear sunscreen. |
