The "Where's Nemo" pet store visted the Mrs. Charles' class to help with their opinion writing. The third graders are trying to decide which class pet would be the best fit for their classroom. After gathering research from the presenters, they narrowed their choices down to a chameleon, a ball python and a bearded dragon. These students will now use their research to write an opinion paper supporting their ideas for a class pet.
Mr. Tom Wood has spent the week at Taylor in the 3rd-6th grade classes tying many different core elements into art. In the 5th grade classes, he used oil pastels to create a timeline of Earth's Erosion, the 3rd graders made portriats of the presidents and the fourth graders created Valentine's stencils! This has been a great week to see the students' creations as well as their art skills becoming sharpened!
Taylor's Kindergarteners made it to the 100th day of school! Students were invited to dress up as a 100-year-old person and they spent the day celebrating the number 100! During the week they also did 100's day art projects, found 100 bean bags, and read 100's day stories! Congratulations kindergarten students!
Taylor's Fifth grade students recently finished an intense 21-day review keyboarding program at school. Keyboarding master, Mr. Bartholomew, held an awards assembly for the fifth-grade classes to celebrate their accomplishments! Students have been working hard, practicing at home and have improved their keyboarding skills greatly! Those who passed off their skills each week were rewarded with candy, ear buds as well as cash prizes! Brycen Asay excelled in keyboarding more than any other student. He was able to type 69 WPM on average! Mrs.
