SNACKS & WATER BOTTLES

Each day I will allow some time for a healthy snack. Some examples of what students can bring are crackers, fruit, vegetables, cheese, etc. Students CANNOT bring candy, cake, cookies, etc. for a snack.


One more thing to add to your school list....a water bottle! Please bring a water bottle every day to school. I strongly encourage students to drink water throughout the day. I don't allow students to get up during class to use the fountain, so please be prepared to come each day with a water bottle in hand! Why should you bring a water bottle? Check out the link that's titled, "Drinking Water and Children."

Mrs. Koenig's Summer

This summer I hung out with friends and family, read, spent time outdoors, and went on a few mini trips. Enjoy the photos below:

I went to the beach the first weekend of summer break.



  My husband and I worked in our yard.    

  We saved some baby birds.

 

I went on some hikes.

I hung out with family and friends.

                                                              I tried Paddleboarding.

I gave Justin Bieber a hug in Seattle. ;-)

                                                        I also went to a few fun concerts at the fair!

I can't wait to hear about your summer!

Spring Break Vivid Vocabulary Requirements

·       Pick one word from the book that you are reading. This word must be interesting. It must be a word that you think would be “new” to your peers.

·       You are to do the following by Tuesday, April 3^rd (use card stock provided):

o   Write the word large at the top of the paper (at least 2 inches).  Use a dictionary first to write the definition under the word (if you can’t find the word in the dictionary, you can use the Internet).

o   Color the word so it stands out (block letters work well).

o   Draw a picture showing a scene of what the word means (3-D pictures will get you more points-use scrap booking supplies, cotton balls, popsicle sticks, construction paper, Cheerios, etc to make it stand out)

o   Write a sentence using your vocabulary word.( On the bottom)

o   Practice saying your word, definition and sentence because you will need to make an oral presentation to the class on the day that it is due.

**It is important to be neat, careful and try to be creative as you work on this project.  It is always a good idea to discuss this with your family and you can get some help from them on this one.  I encourage family participation for this project.  The main idea is to build your vocabulary so you will learn new and interesting words.
