                           Making geometric snowmen in Math.



Believe it or not we have been making progress in our class with all the snow days we had lately. Every student has recently been tested for their reading comprehension skills and we are learning about area and perimeter in math. The tables test will commence this week and students will be using this knowledge to assist in finding the area of many common items.  The Massachusetts Biographies are coming together nicely. The children are working on their biography page for the class book. This writing will be helpful for the speech each student will be giving in the classroom the week of February 18th. A schedule will be coming home with the monthly newsletter with a date and time for these presentations.

Please send in an empty cereal or tissue box for the Valentine's Day Party. Monthly notices will eventually be posted here. Until then I will continue to send these as a paper copy with the students.

Let it snow Let it snow Let it snow...
