Student Guest Blog, Week 5 (and Hello, Spring Break!)
Hello, Philomath families! Hope you are looking forward to having a break from our busy school year. Next week is our school’s Spring Break, so there will be no classes or tutoring until Monday, March 20th. Progress reports will be coming out by next Friday, March 17th, and tuition payments will be due by Sunday the 19th (check your email for an invoice for that). Also, our ELA class will need a couple of materials for the next quarter—more information is coming by email.
Now, as promised, the final student blog post of the quarter, written by Nico in 4th grade. Take it away, Nico!
Nico’s Blog Post
Hi my name is Nico and I’m a 4th grader at Philomath. It’s my turn to write a blog post about what we’re doing in our classes.
This week in math we have been working on time word problems and also working on time differences. I told my mom and dad “this is not my favorite” but Ms. Smith makes it as fun as possible.
In Science we are working on an engineering notebook. This week we built, tested, and modified a rubber band car which was really fun.
For ELA this week we did our Daily Oral Language at the start of class and have been working on persuasive writing letters to our representatives. I’ve written a letter to President Biden about saving trees. We are also working on our March story contest entries which I hope to win!
It’s been a good week and I’m excited for Spring Break next week and to come back to the 4th quarter of school.
