Welcome Back!
You'll notice from our schedule that we are beginning some new units and continuing with other learning. In Math we will begin learning about fractions, while in Writing we will begin learning to write biographies. We will continue our study of biographies during Reading Workshop and Social Studies, as well as getting ready to build our instruments in science.
Your child has made a plan for the instrument s/he would like to build. Please help your child collect the materials they will need from your recycling bin such as cereal boxes, paper towel tubes, or other containers.
Yearbook Orders
If you would like to order a school yearbook please complete the order form and return by Wednesday February 27th. Order forms will be sent home Monday afternoon.
We had a great time on our winter woods hike and learned a lot about how animals survive the cold. We even had a chance to try to design a home to insulate an "animal" and then see how well it survived the cold. The good news is that everyone designed a home warm enough and all our "animals" survived! The picture above shows us celebrating a job well done!
