Weekly News for April 4th


It was a pleasure having time to meet with you over Parent-Teacher Conferences.  Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to meet with us.  It was our pleasure to share with you, your child's progress.  


We have begun a science unit on Matter and the children will be performing investigations about the different properties of solids and liquids.  Please check out some of the photos!

In Math we have begun a new unit on Geometry.Bridges  We have provided a link to the Bridges web site so you are able to read about the goals for this unit.  Please let us know if you have any questions.

In Reading, the children continue to read about Famous Americans.  Groups of 3-4 students have read biographies and completed a graphic organizer about the life and accomplishments of their famous American.  The small groups then worked together to create a poster to share with the rest of the class about their Famous American.  The children have really enjoyed this project!

Along with earning individual stars, the class is able to work towards a reward for working well together.  Recently, the children were able to earn enough letters to spell out "We earned extra recess!" The children voted for another game day.  We have included photos from Friday afternoon.  We love rewarding the class for working well together!

Reminders:  If your child is participating in Jump Rope for Heart, permission slips are due.

Please make sure your child is dressed warmly for these upcoming cold days.  Our playground can get really windy, so the wind chill can make it feel much colder!

Have a great week ahead!
