Handrich's
Happenings
September/October
|
Boston School Forest
On October first Mrs. Handrich's class went to the Boston School Forest.
The Boston School Forest is not in Boston, it is in Plover. It is fun,
unfortunately only schools are allowed. Fortunately if you're a
chaperone you can go. When I went there it was fun.

Ramona Quimby, Age 8 Play
by Colin
On October. 6,1999, all third and fourth graders from Jackson
School went to see a play in Wausau at the Grand Theater about the book Ramona
Quimby, Age 8. We started reading the book on Sept. 22,1999. We are still not done
with it. We read Chapter 7 on October 7, 1999. We just have a few more chapters to go. The
play was great but it wasn’t exactly like the book. We will discuss more similarities
between the book and the play when we finish reading the whole book. |

PEER
MEDIATION
By KAM and Adam
KAM, Adam, and Emily went to a peer mediation overnight at Boston School Forest. They
also went to the SPASH high ropes course. At the high ropes course they went on the moon
walk, the criss-cross ropes, the rock wall, the swinging log, the jungle vine swing, and
the three roper. They ate someros. They also ate hot dogs and chocolate chip pancakes for
the main parts of their meals. For the rest of the meal they had vegetables, dessert,
chips, pickles, apple sauce, and juice. They also watched October Sky and went on a night
hike with their peer mediation coaches.

Computers |
 |
Lately, in Mrs. Handrich's, class we have been
going to the computer lab. This year we have been doing Handrich's Happenings. For those
of you who had children in Mrs. Bickford's class, you may remember Nova Notes. Handrich's
Happening's is fairly similar to Nova Notes. In other news, all of the computer programs
our class has been using are either related to science or social studies. That is all for
this edition of Handrich's Happenings.

Spelling
In spelling we are working on vowels and word patterns. We
have to study 20 basic and 8 challenge words. Each week we have to take the
pretest and if you got 100% on the pretest you don't have to take the
posttest. Don't forget to study!

| Book Report
We are reading novels of our choice. If we read and do a book report, we get stickers
on the chart . If we get 20 stickers before the end of the quarter, we can go into the
treasure chest on report card day.

Library
I just figured out that
Thursday is library day. Basically all we do is find a book. (need I say more?) Then we
check it out. (duh.) Sometimes, only sometimes, Mrs. Handrich will assign us a topic to
research.
P.S. Question. What was this story? (Strange humor?)

For math, since we have
third and fourth grades, we are separated into at least two groups. One big group is Mrs.
Handrich's class (mostly third graders) and Mr. Johnson's class has another big group
(mostly fourth graders.) For fourth graders we had math homework for the first time on
September 2, 1999. If we don't do three pages of math homework by the next day, well, I
don't know what will happen. For the third grade class, some of them didn't get homework
right away. Everyone had math homework by September 3, 1999, however. |
