Art Night Open House
It was wonderful to see so many of you last night - here is the stop motion movie we premiered! We made this movie with the help of an artist in residence - graciously paid for by the Duniway PTA and Arts Committee! Enjoy!

Biomes of the world - young environmentalists
Hi everyone!
This has been a busy few weeks as we continue to learn more about the habitats of the world.
We have explored temperate forests, wetlands, polar regions and this week, grasslands. Each week we research (read, write, speak, view, draw) about the habitat, then we create projects to show what we have learned, then we show our projects to others. At the same time, we are also working hard to write a multi paragraph report project about our chosen animal. Your children are amazing - so full of great ideas to share with each other. Here are a few pictures of sharing grassland projects with a fourth grade class.
Have a great weekend!

Oxbow Park - a day of nature, learning , and fun
We had a wonderful time - through the rain and the sun. The river was high - but the animals were out. We saw osprey, deer, and many small creatures of the forest. A special thanks to all of the parents who helped make the day so special. Enjoy a few pictures of our day!

Whatever the weather....young meteorologists!
Hi everyone! April 20th has been very busy! After six weeks, pages of reading, reams of writing, dozens of drawings, and research galore, have wrapped up our current study of weather!
We began to day with a visit (paid for by our generous PTA) from the Portland Audubon Society to show us how weather effects the habitats of Oregon - and the animals that live in the many habitats of Oregon. The speaker took us through a virtual tour of the state habitats, and the animal pelts allowed us to see how the animals are different depending on their environment.
In the afternoon, we invited other students to join us and learn more about weather. First we working with 4th grade, and then with Kindergarten students.
MORE SHARING....
Finally, we welcomed out parents! We hoped you learned something new about weather!
Thanks for all of the support from home for your child's learning at school.
