This year is certainly flying by! It is hard to believe that next week we will be entering the month of December. Students have been working hard and learning so much! It is truly a pleasure working with each child and helping them develop into exceptional young men and women.
Student have been working hard on their Slave Narrative projects! It is amazing to see the growth with each project completed and the amount of ownership of their project. When students return from Thanksgiving Break, they will begin their newest PBL project, Earth Models. In math students will be working on measurement, metric and US customary. Fourth grade has also kicked off Reading Counts, so we are really pushing for each child to read to enhance their reading comprehension skills.
The PTO Holiday Shop will be open at Pontiac Elementary from 07 December to 11 December for students to purchase gifts. If anyone is willing to volunteer with the holiday shop, please let Miss Grimm or Miss Saullo know.
Pontiac's Lego Robotics Teams are asking for your help with their Trash Trek Project! The teams will be competing in January and are hoping you can send in 2 liter bottles, paper towel rolls, and toilet paper rolls in their efforts to build a greenhouse for the school and grow the plants inside of it. The class that brings in the most items will win a pizza party!
