February 1 - February 5

This week has been filled with lots of fun Battle of the Books activities.  Monday during homeroom the top two teacher teams battled for the top spot in front of the students who are part of Battle of the Books.  This was the closest finish we have ever had with a teacher team.  The final score was 95-90, the difference of knowing one author.  Wow!  How incredible is it that we had 12 teachers from Park View who took the time to read the same books as their students, discuss the books they read with them and became part of the competition!  The top teacher team will compete against the top student team next week for what is sure to be exciting.  A tremendous thank you to the following teachers for sharing their love of reading with the students

Ms. Uecker 
Mrs. Koepke 
Mrs. Jones
Mrs. Jackson
Ms. Boushely 
Mr. Cochran
Mrs. Faust 
Mrs. Raebel
Mrs. Rageth 
Mr. Dathe 
Mr. Perkins 
Mrs. Meixelsperger 

Friday the students will participate throughout the day in battles and we'll have a winning team by the end of the day!

Mrs. Nowak's class was also in this week using EdPuzzle to view and responding to information on rocks.  Then they created their own rock diagram.

Lastly, Mrs. Somer's Read 180 class is beginning a collaborative novel.  They will be reading Alabama Moon as a class along with another class of students from New Glarus. Students will read the book and respond to questions with small groups of students from both school using Google Classroom.
