Important information:
- Please be sure ALL your child's Winter clothes are labeled with their first and last names. You'd be amazed how many gloves and hats are lost. Also, if you'd like to leave a change of clothes in your child's locker please send it in with them. Some kids also leave a second pair of snow pants so they don't have to bring their own back and forth.
- We'll be doing a little activity before Winter break and we need a few supplies. If you can purchase one, we'd really appreciate it! Here's the link for supplies needed:
- We are off for Winter break December 23-January 1. School will resume on January 2nd.
3, 2, 1, things you should know for this week...
3 math activities we worked on were solidifying our skills in counting tens and ones, finding all the possible ways to make a number (with different amounts of tens and ones), and we learned a new math game called, Roll A Square.
*Ask your child to show all the different ways to make 31.
2 read aloud books we read this week were Thank you Mr. Falker which focused on the author, Patricia Polacco's own childhood, and growing up with dyslexia and Have You Filled a Bucket Today? which we used to talk about how we can build each other up. The kids had lots of ideas!
We made a chain to keep this in our thoughts all the time!
*Ask your child what they wrote on their strips.
1 team building activity we worked on today was cooperative games. Often, students do well in team activities with teacher direction but when left to play a cooperative game with their peers, with no teacher sitting next to them, they can forget about taking turns, helping each other, etc. We talked about ways to make games successful and after we discussed how it went and what we still needed to work on.
