Mrs. Koenig's Summer

Here are a few photos of what I've been doing the last few months. I had more time to relax, play, and work on projects than I ever had before, because this was the first summer that I've had off from work ever sense I was 15 years old! Ouch!

This summer, I hung out with friends and family, read, spent time outdoors, and went on a mini trip to Idaho to visit a dear friend. I also got to see my little baby nephew grow and change (which was my favorite part!). Enjoy the photos below:

Spending time with family...

Mini family reunion


Hike with my cousin


Shopping with my mom


My dads truck show


Hanging outside with my husband


Spending time with some friends...

Aumsville Fun Run


Just spending quality time with girlfriends


Spending time with my little nephew...







Trip to Idaho....

At the airport, I saw Terry Porter (if your parents liked to watch the Blazers during the late 80's/early 90's, then they will enjoy this photo)!


Hiked up some foothills




Went to a free MC Hammer concert. Your parents may find this entertaining :)


This fall I plan to read as much as possible, jog in a few events, and watch football (well, I will most likely just hear it in the background). GO DUCKS!


I'm looking forward to reading/hearing about your summer!

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."

Straub Nature Kids Class

Second through fifth graders can learn about the industrious little pika that lives high in Oregon’s mountains, and how it is being affected by our changing climate in a FREE after-school class offered by the Friends of Straub Environmental Learning Center. Children will learn about how pikas survive in their rocky homes during harsh winter conditions, what they eat, and their role in the food chain. The class is taught by Bobbie Snead.

The class for second and third graders is on Thursday, January 13, 2011.
The class for fourth and fifth graders is on Thursday, January 20, 2011.

The classes run from 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. at Straub Environmental Learning Center, 1320 A St. NE, next to Olinger Pool, near North Salem High School.

The class is free but registration is required. To register, call Alexandra at 503-391-4145 or register at alexandra@fselc.org.

~Vivid Vocabulary Requirements~

Vivid Vocabulary Requirements

• Your vivid vocabulary word is _________________________________________________.

• You are to do the following by _______________________:

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.

Headphones

It would be nice if each student had their own set of earbud headphones to use while on the computer. Last year we had so much trouble with the ones here at school breaking. If you are able to provide headphones, please label them and place them in a zip lock bag, which should also be labeled. Thanks for your help!

SNACKS

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.

Water Bottles!

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."
