Just a quick update before the holiday
break. In math we continue to work with
money. Identifying and counting
quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies helps with all kinds of math including
skip counting, addition and subtraction.
Keep working with coins at home and playing Under the Cup.
Your kids all read a holiday
story this week (one of the books pictured here).
They
worked on the Retell Rope and other comprehension strategies in their
preparation for book club discussions.
They enjoyed discussing what they read with their friends. They continue to make progress with the assortment
of skills involved with the book club prep.
Their sheet should be in the folder.
Also in the folder is a picture of the
whole class. Everyone got a copy, we gave
directions for how to pack them and offered help, I hope they made it ok J
Today (Friday) is a STEM Friday. The students will be going to Mrs. Richardson’s
room and making a catapult. Hopefully
they are excited to tell you about their design.
Upcoming dates:

Holiday Special Snack, Thursday, December 19th, 1:00 pm

Happy Holidays!
