We have been asked to <b><u>try out</u></b> this distance learning model so that it can be in place for next year. This try out will begin tomorrow, May 23. I have posted an assignment in Seesaw that students will have two weeks to do and turn in. <i>Your child knows how to sign in to Seesaw and post his or her work. This is an app that we have been using for two years. </i></span><br />

<i style="font-family: arial; white-space: pre-wrap;">"Distance Learning is a system for providing students with assignments and/or instruction that can be done remotely in order to make up school when school is closed due to reasons such as inclement weather, town emergencies, election days and possible professional development days. This practice has been implemented in several area districts. This Distance Learning will be completed by students at home within a certain window of time and will be done in lieu of making up additional days at the end of the school year. "</i><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial"; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i>"This program will allow us to recover the missed days/hours of school due to cancellations, without having to add additional day(s) on to the end of the school year. While we know the best instruction takes place face-to-face with teachers, we understand that the last week in June is not a most productive time for learning to take place. The Distance Learning program also allows students to develop their foundational skills needed to plan and accomplish learning in different environments. A byproduct of this program is that students will experience learning in different environments and it promotes independence. The ability to navigate Distance Learning programs has also become a critical skill for our students as they advance beyond Burlington Public Schools."</i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Our annual field trip to The Concord Museum was an excellent way to learn about the events of April 19, 1775. Students "became" members of six important Concord families and learned what that fateful day meant for them. Our study of the American Revolution has been greatly enhanced by this experience. </span><br />

Room 13 and 14 participated in a STEM "Hangout" to hear about the amazing robotics program at Marshall Simonds. Former Fox Hill students shared their experiences and inspired us to explore possibilities for future uses of robots!

Fox Hill kicked off the Boosterthon fundraising campaign today. Please check backpacks for the Funrun information! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This week we are wrapping up our Science unit on matter. Students have been exploring matter and its phases, and are creating models in a digital notebook. Ask your fifth grader what the particles in your glass of water, and ice cubes are doing!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We finished the first topic in math, place value, and are on to adding and subtracting decimals next. We will also explore properties of addition- associative and commutative, as well as using compatible numbers and compensation to add and subtract numbers mentally.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In my ELA class we are finishing up writing poems "from the heart." Watch for some of these on Seesaw! Students are enjoying my read aloud, <i>Seedfolks</i>, and will be writing their own book recommendations this week after I model one for them. I am hoping to create a file of these recommendations for students to use to help them select great books. We are also practicing grammar skills this week, taking a look at subjects and predicates. Also beginning this week- a daily practice of writing a Greek or Latin root word and their derivatives. Students will study these, and each week we will have an auction, where they can bid on the number of words they know. I will post Root Word Champions on this blog!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Of course the biggest news is the addition of our class pets: gerbils named Snickers, Dawn and Doge! I am sure some students will be asking for permission to take them home over school vacations. Feel free to contact me for information about this.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Finally, thank you so much to all of you for coming to conferences, and to Back to School Night. Your support is an invaluable asset to your your child's education!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Fox Hill parents are the best!!!</span><br />
