Math Homework:

This week, I sent home math homework.  Every student in our class can write numbers from 0 – 100 with no problems.  We hope to master numbers from 0 – 120 soon.  Now we want to extend that knowledge to help them decompose and manipulate those numbers by identifying numbers when only part of the chart is exposed and help them better have a better understanding of numbers.  This can be a very challenging skill to master and any extra help at home can be beneficial.

 

Pencils

We are experiencing a pencil shortage in our class.  If possible, please send in a pack.  Many thanks!

 

Star Student

A star student schedule was sent home today.  Your child will be making an iMovie to share with the class on his or her special day.  At your convenience, could you share 5-6 photos by emailing them to me?  It would be best if you could send them at least 1 week before your child’s star student day.  They will need a week to work on their presentation.  If you cannot email, please send them in and I will scan them.  I will send you a copy of the final iMovie.

 

Valentine’s Day!

Please send in an empty cereal box so that we may decorate.  We need a big box for our class valentines!  Also, if you are able to send in a topping for our ice cream sundae treat.  Please let me know!

 

City of Ice Matters!

Last week, we took a virtual field trip to the City of Ice in China.  It is an amazing creation made up of ice from a local river.  We used this opportunity to also discuss matter and the three states - solid, liquid and gas.  Through our video, we share information on the City of Ice and matter.
