Our last Friday of the school year together! We continue to finish, sort and take home - little by little. This afternoon is our annual "Jelly Bean Tabloid" day and we hope that Mother Nature cooperates and allows us to be outside. We have fun running around to each of the stations to complete them - all 33 of them! Our reward at the end is - you guessed it - Jelly Beans!
Here are the other year-end remarks from our class:
Griffin: Griffin says bye to all of his friends!
Alan: I really had a fun time this year! I wish that I didn't have to go to grade 4!
Audrey: I really liked learning about Mexico this year because I learned interesting things.
Ben: I hope everyone that's in grade 2 will have a fun year in grade 3. I wonder if I'll have fun in my new school. I'll miss my grade 3 classmates very much. (We'll all MISS you too, Ben.)
Charlotte: I know that I will have a fun time in my new classroom but I will miss this classroom, too. Have a nice summer!
Dominic: This year was the best year that I've had in all 3 years! P. S. Happy Summer!!!!
Eirrah: I really liked this year because I met new friends and there were different things to learn about.
Frances: I liked researching the scarlet macaw for my Mexico project and I hope that your summer turns out to be a good one!
Heather: I'm sad that I'm going to be leaving Mrs. Chumola's room because I've been in her room for 3 years already.
Kael: I really liked this school year because it was really fun! I made some new friends, too.
Liam: I'll miss this class - I'm done!
Madelynn: I'm going to miss this classroom but I'm happy to be upstairs, too!
Violet: I'm very excited for my new teacher but I'll also be missing Mrs. Chumola. I liked the research that we did about Mexico.
Signing off for the 2015-2016 school year! Our best wishes to those that are leaving us. (Sad to see
you go and we wish you lots of happiness at your new school!) and to everyone else - see you in September!

Hello Summer!
Hi everyone! We survived (and had fun) Linwood's Outdoor Challenge. We prepared for and hosted our Celebration of Learning. Thank you to families that were able to attend. We hope that you enjoyed seeing our learning about Mexico. Part of this blog will include both videos so that everyone may share and enjoy them.
On Tuesday, we joined our grade group friends for our annual Adventure Playground fun and picnic. What perfect weather we had! The ladies at the conservatory presented an interesting program to us that reinforced our learning about soils and plants. Of course, Sargent Sundae is always a highlight to finish the day!
Students are writing about their field trip experience. We continue to finish some class work, then will organize things to send home. It's still a busy time!
As a final celebration of our Mexican learning, our class enjoyed a few traditional foods. One of them was "Churritos." They were yummy! Ask your child what they are!
To end this year's blog, I want to say thank you very much to our families for your support, encouragement and willingness to help whenever or however you can. I wish all of you a happy, safe summer with your family.
Room 6's "Last Blog Post" comments:
Andy: It has been a very good few months here at Linwood. I hope that anyone else that comes here has a very good time, too.
Aubrey: I made some new friends in this room! I hope everyone has a fun summer!
Hudson: This school year has been a great time! I was taught very well and I don't thin that I could go to a better school than this!
Maverick: This year was nice and I really like the people that were in my class.
Gabriel: It's the end of the school year - bye everybody! See you in September.
Alex: Me, Andrew and my mom were looking for the ducks on our field trip. It was fun!
Loralai: This school year was awesome and I think that because I'm coming back to this classroom that it'll be even more fun!

Our Outdoor Challenge Week!
Last week we were part of Linwood's first Outdoor Challenge week! For five days, we were outside learning through play and a variety of activities. We managed to get two community walks in for the week, too. The weather proved to be a bit of a "challenge" but we persevered and had fun anyway! This week, the children are writing about the experience. Different stations included a mud kitchen, water play, games, different nature art activities, an earth ball, making boats, creating and weaving, scavenger hunts, reading, drawing and writing. We hope that you enjoy some of the pictures that will give you an idea of what the week looked like for us.
Okay, more than a few pictures - but we hope these give you an idea of the fun and learning that happened outside last week! The last photo is our May birthday celebration - at least it wasn't raining too hard at that time!
