Dog Sled Building and the Ikidarod 2015






It was a super fun week.  It’s always great to meet with all of you parents during the student conferences.  I think about how positive those meetings are and love to see the kids do so well talking about their academic performance and behavior here at school.
The dog sled building was pretty unforgettable!  The kids did a great job adding and subtracting decimals for the official times today.  They all had to agree, I’ve never seen them so motivated to do math!  Stay tuned for the video I’ll create and post on our site.  It was a great Iditarod culminating event as we prepare to check in next week each morning and see what’s going on in “The Last Great Race” of the Iditarod 2015. 
Next week we will jump back into the American Revolution and the causes the really pushed the colonists to want separation from Great Britain.  Thanks again for the loaner tools.  It was so much fun!
