Mrs. Hardy’s Class Having An Extraordinary Year
Mrs. Hardy’s class at Carson Elementary School was very busy learning and exploring concepts in science, reading and writing.
In science, students concluded a unit on matter! They completed hands on activities for buoyancy, surface tension, and properties of matter.
In reading, students were very enthusiastic and enjoyed the small group discussions during our guided reading groups.
For writing, students learned how to summarize. They used figurative language, added interesting words, practiced writing an opinion piece, and organized stories with a beginning, middle and end.
Students worked hard on becoming superb writers. Their collaborative efforts promoted discussion and critical thinking.
Great job everyone!
First Graders Write To Pen Pals
Mrs. Irwin’s first grade class at Carson Elementary School is writing letters to pen pals in California.
The students are exchanging letters with the class of first grade teacher Sarah Joyce, who is the daughter of Principal Diane Joyce. The children were eager to send and receive the letters and learn about the differences between the two schools. Mrs. Irwin’s class most recently wrote about the snow we had!
It has been such a great experience and students are looking forward to writing many more letters this year!
