4TH GRADE PALEONTOLOGISTS
In Ms. Carnaghi’s fourth-grade class at Emerson Elementary, students were Paleontologists. In this Science unit students were studying fossils and how scientists can study the history of life. They learned how these scientists carefully follow steps to dig up the fossils they need to study the history of life. Students practiced being a Paleontologist by using chocolate chip cookies. The chocolate chip cookies were the “fossils” that had to be dug out. They had to carefully follow steps to dig out each chocolate chip from the cookie without hurting or breaking it. Students got to learn about fossils and become Paleontologists through hands-on experience in science class.

SECOND STEP SOCIAL & EMOTIONAL LEARNING CURRICULUM K-8
As you know, in September we kicked of the Second Step Curriculum in all K-8 classes to further strengthen our social and emotional learning. Second Step offers weekly, age-appropriate virtual lessons for students to help them with a variety of social and emotional skills. These weekly lessons build on and support all of the great work we're doing at Ike to support our students. Combined with our schoolwide restorative practices and consistent PBIS expectations, we are creating a firm Tier 1 foundation for supporting all of our students' social, emotional, and behavioral development.
This week, each grade-level will begin a new unit. Please view the grade-level home links below to learn more about what your child is learning and how to support them at home during the second unit of Second Step.

CANVAS LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM!
All students, grades Young 5s-12 use Canvas, a learning management system. Classroom teachers use Canvas to provide instruction, resources, activities, and assessments for students, as well as parent communication.
Parents are encouraged to set up a parent/observer account to stay abreast of student learning. Canvas will allow parents to:
- Contact their child’s teacher
