WELCOME TO 5TH GRADE!!
We had a CRAZY-busy first day! The kids met with all three of their fifth grade teachers. We ate a sack lunch in the classrooms, and then headed out for community service. I bet they are worn out. Well, I am anyway!
Mrs. Kinseth and I walked with my homeroom to City Park. We pulled weeds, raked leaves, and picked up trash. I learned that a lot of fifth graders don't know what weeds look like.
2 of the sections of fifth graders got a small homework assignment today. I gave them a contact information sheet for their parents to fill out. The other section of kids will be getting it tomorrow.
Calendar items:
Pictures are on August 26
Happy Birthday to Kylie, today.

Google docs
We’ve been working with Google Docs for the last few weeks
and the kids are really getting the hang of it. They are really enjoying the
comments that I am able to leave them directly on their writing. They can then respond to my comments, fix
their writing and resubmit for a higher grade....
Several students have asked if they can continue to write
letters, journal or diary entries, book reviews, stories, etc… and submit them
to me over the summer. The answer is ABSOLUTELY yes! I will happily check my
Google account kendra.haugen@bkcsd.org and respond back to their writing. Anything
that keeps them thinking, reading, and writing is great with me. I have included their username and password
below, as well as reminder instructions, just in case they forget how to log in
and share.
1. Go to google.com
2. Click the blue box that says SIGN IN
3. Put in username:
___@bkcsd.org
4. Put in password: _________________
5. Click on the apps
box up by sign in and go to Drive
6. Click on Create (upper left hand corner) and pick
document
7. Name your document
8. Type whatever you’d like
9. Click on Share
10. Type my email under invite people kendra.haugen@bkcsd.org
11. Then click done
I will check my computer and respond as often as I can!
