WELCOME!!

Welcome to the 2010-2011 school year at Midas Creek Elementary. I am looking forward to being your teacher this year, and we should have a lot of fun. This website is designed to help and enhance home to school communication. Please refer to it periodically to see what is going on in the classroom.

Our back to school night is Aug 19th, and I hope to see all of you there.

So to start out this year, tell me something you did over the summer.

(Remember, only use your initials- no names)

End of School

So we are getting close to the end of your 5th grade school year. Soon you will be 6th graders, YAY!!

So write down one or two of your favorite memories, or one or two things you will miss from 5th grade.

Mine:

1. This amazing class that I've had. I've never had all the students last through the whole year with no move ins or move outs.

2. How you make me laugh, and ask me questions all the time. It's fun to have students that want to talk to the teacher, or tell them stories.

CRT's!!!!!!!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

We have our tests from June 1 to June 9th. Tell me how you feel? Are you worried, nervous, do you think something will be easy, what do you think will be hard. Etc?

Just relax, try your best, eat a good breakfast, get enough sleep, and do the best that you can. That is all you should worry about, doing the best that you can do, not the best that everyone else can do.

Remember only put your initials, no names!

D.A.N.C.E

Here is the dance that we are performing later on. Please practice so that you know the steps really well. This way when we practice once we come back on track, we'll be able to stay together as a group.

SCIENCE FAIR WINNERS!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!! to the Science Fair winners from our class. They put in a lot of time and effort to win. These are our winners.

A.R- won for "Can Soil Affect Plant Growth?"

C.S- won for "From a fixed point, what is the best angle of decent to go the furthest distance?"

A.C, M.D, and K.H- won for "Which vacuum is best?"

MARCH MADNESS!!!

We are having a fun COMPETITION for March Madness. Students win a surprise for doing as many tests as they can, or by improving the best in YPP. So try your hardest, and you'll see the prizes at the end of this month.

Gingerbread Houses!!

We got to decorate our Gingerbread Houses, and it was a lot of fun seeing all the great and creative ideas. Here are a few pictures of a few of the houses that were done.
