THE MAPLES ACADEMY

Monday, June 2, 2014

A great start to the month of June!!

We started off the day with our monthly assembly for June!

Maple, Alex, Peyton, and Jack were recognized for perfect attendance!
Hayden received Principal's Choice this month for demonstrating outstanding courage!
Congratulations everyone!
The value we are focusing on for the month of June is Perseverance! Since it is getting into the warmer weather out, it is important for students to be demonstrating perseverance each day by completing tasks and homework, being an active learner in the classroom, and continuing to push through any obstacles they may face, with a positive attitude!

In Math, we started an introduction to 2-D geometry. Students explored different shapes through an "I have...Who has?" game, as well as create their own geometric drawings using only the shapes we discussed.

In Language, students wrote their A Little Princess Final test.

Science - we discussed the movement of objects and the 6 different simple machines that help us in everyday tasks! Students experimented with using wooden dowels to move bricks, stone and baskets, and the differences between sliding objects versus using wheels to roll them.

Outstanding day today!
