PRINCIPAL MESSAGE
CAPITOL HEIGHTS ELEMENTARYSCHOOL
Dear Parents,
Happy autumn! The school year has
started off quite well, as students arrived
back excited and ready to learn. Thank you
for sending your children to school well
rested and on time. Students from PreKindergarten through the fifth grade have
been actively learning using the Common Core standards and PGCPS
curriculum.
I realize there are many questions in regards to the Common
Core Standards. Please be on the look out for flyers announcing our
parent information sessions.
It was wonderful to see so many families at our Back to School
Night. Communication is key - please contact us should you have any
concerns, questions, or comments. Our purpose is to help each child
become the very best he/she can be. It has been shown that strong
parental involvement and interest in education are crucial factors in
students' success in school. We encourage you to be well-informed with
up to date information about your child's class and our school.
October marks a celebration of "National School Lunch"! We
would like to take this opportunity to invite you enjoy lunch with your
child on Tuesday, October 15th. Please view your child's daily schedule
for lunch times.
A few reminders:
• We know many students have cell phones. Please remind your child
(ren) that all phones must be turned off and stay in backpacks while
in school. Should their phone be taken out during the school day it
will be used for instructional r urposes.
• Our Character Day Parade will take place, October 31 at 10:00am.
Please make sure students bring their book and costumes to school.
Students will change into their costumes prior to the parade.

During the next four weeks, we will
be learning about the diversity of
families and family homes. Children
will discover the essence of
friendships and recognize that
family pets are sometim'es among
their best friends. We will move from
friends at home, to friends at school,
and finally to friends within the
community. Children will develop
an understanding of diversity, love,
support, comfort, helpfulness, and
cooperation.
Children will be learning to describe and classify
objects by their attributes and will focus on oneto-one correspondence. Ask your child to help
you match the socks in the laundry basket.
Begin with pairs of socks of different colors and
sizes. (Don't expect your preschooler to sort a
pile of white athletic socks.) Spread the socks
out on a large surface. Hold up one sock and
search with your child to find its mate. Repeat
ntil all the socks are matched.

A Note from Teachers
Can you believe it??? We have been in
school for a month already. Time flies
when you are LEARNING!!! Please
continue to help your Baby with their
homework nightly. Studies have shown
that reading with your child for 20 minutes
reaps great success. As your child reads to
you, have them point to each word. This
is a skill that many students struggle with in
reading. Don't be afraid to have them
read you the same story. Repeated
reading helps build fluency. Thanks for
helping your child! ©

Ciencias: Programa STEM
En el kindergarten y primer grado el programa se esta llevando
a cabo por la Sra. Guzman y por el Sr.Flaquer, en este, tras una
introduccion, en la que se reviso el concepto de vivo/no vivo con
la idea de que el alumnado afianzara los conceptos propios del
curso anterior y adquiriera confianza con el desarrollo de las
clases en esparlol; se procedio a iniciar la unidad relativa a los cambios en la naturaleza
titulada "Cambiar es bueno" en la que se presta especial atencion a los ciclos de vida
animal, en especial al de la mariposa y la rana. Comenzamos con el ciclo de vida de la
mariposa en el que se le explico al alumnado como a partir de una oruga, tras esta
formar una crisalida luego se formaba una mariposa capaz de poner huevos a partir de
los que saldrian orugas cerrandose asi su ciclo de vida. Para el desarrollo de esta unidad
se utilizaron varias tecnicas en las que se implicaba directamente al alumno, estas
partian de la explicacion del profesor para luego desarrollar actividades de manera
individual y colectiva y siempre bajo el desarrollo del lenguaje
Se destacan entre estas actividades dos proyectos
fundamentales, uno consistia en la representaci6n
del ciclo de vida de la mariposa desde una
perspectiva artistica en la que el alumnado utilizo
diferentes materiales (platos, diferentes tipos de
pasta alimenticia y hojas) para recrear el
mencionado ciclo de vida; el otro consistia en criar
orugas reales que tras formar sus
correspondientes crisalidas derivaron en
maravillosas mariposas que el alumnado libero en
el patio del colegio como colofon final del proyecto.
Actualmente nos encontramos desarrollando diferentes actividades relativas al ciclo de
vida de la rana, que tienen como objetivo principal la
implicacion del alumnado para asi facilitar su aprendizaje.
Science STEM Program
In our Kindergarten and First Grade classes lead by Sra.
Guzman and Sr. Flaquer, concluded our unit about living and
non living things. Our students had the opportunity to
classify different types of living and non living things and to
practice all concepts in Spanish. They were able to connect
these concepts with the next unit entitled -Change is Good,
which is related to nature. This unit will have a special focus in the life cycle of the
butterfly and the frog. We started with the life cycle of the butterfly in which they learn
first hand how a caterpillar changed to a chrysalis and finally to a butterfly. Our students
observed all these changes right inside the classroom! Various techniques, from teacher

guidance to student discussions and first hand observations of live butterflies in the
classroom, were put in place in order for the students to understand this process. They
acquired a great deal of understanding of how a tiny egg laid by a butterfly changed to a
caterpillar, then to a chrysalis, to finally to a butterfly, all in Spanish!
Our students had the opportunity to manipulate materials such as
plates, different types of pastas and leaves in order to represent
their understanding of the lessons and recreate the life cycle of
the butterfly. To finalize this lesson, the students freed the
butterflies they took care of and saw developing in the classroom.
They gathered in the school playground to free and say goodbye
to the beautiful mariposas!
Presently, our students are learning and
creating activities related to the life cycle of a -rana- frog. Students
will be engaged deeply in the process in order to facilitate their
understanding-and develop their Spanish language.
Segundo Grado/Second Grade STEM "Las Partes de la Planta"
In the last few weeks, our second graders in theSTEM/Spanish Dual Language begun
studying the main parts of a plant. Students are experimenting first hand how a plants
grow; they planted a seed which they will monitor and observe their growth and will
record their observation in their own journals. Each student planted different seeds in
different conditions (different types of dirt, and wet cotton) this
way they will compare the growth and the needs of the plant
(they will make connection with prior skills learned in the
Living and non-living unit). This experimentation will activate
their scientific curiosity, help them state hypothesis and state
observations and conclusions.
En la ültima semana los alumnos de STEM/Spanish Dual
Language de segundo grado comenzaron con el estudio de la
anatomia de las plantas y para ello desarrollaron un proyecto
que se extendera hasta el final de la unidad; el proyecto consiste
en que el alumno siembre su propia semilla. Cada alumno
sembro distintas semillas en distintos sustratos (sembraron
sobre distintos tipos de tierra asi como sobre algodon hignedo) de esta manera podran
establecer comparaciones atendiendo a las necesidades de una planta en su crecimiento
(necesidades de la planta como ser vivo; esto nos servird tambien para repasar conceptos
aprendidos en la leccion de introduccion a este curso) y sobre todo para desarrollar una
mentalidad cientifica y critica (Hipotesis) que partird desde la observacion del
crecimiento de su planta en distintas condiciones (Observacion), el seguimiento de sus
plantas en estas distintas condiciones (Experimentacion) y el desarrollo de
conclusiones y aprendizajes al final de todo el proceso (Conclusion).

Dear Parents and Students:
We are so excited about the new playground coming to Capitol Heights ES. Over the past year we have
raised over $15,000.00 towards the cost of the playground. Our students have taken great pride in the
selection of the playground and the making of a video used to gain sponsorship. They also participated
in several fundraisers to show their commitment to the project. We invite you to join us in our enthusiasm
and picture that new playground in the school yard. We are at the final gate and need your help in raising
the remaining $1,500.00. Can we count on you to make a small contribution towards this effort. We
sincerely hope that you will join us as a Capitol Heights Elementary School Playground donor.
Please make your donation payable to CHES PTSA. A donation box will be placed in the front office
the week of October 6th, 2014. If you have any questions or require additional information, contact us at
