Dear families,
It was wonderful to see the students this week, even if it was only for two days. We got a lot done: completed our unit of study on capacity and volume, as well as finishing our class assessment in Science on interdependency and conservation.
Next week is the last three days of school for 2018! With all of the snow days we have had to adjust some of our plans for the short week to try to get caught up on instruction. In Reading I will be integrating Greece and Rome into our whole group lessons. In writing we will complete poems about winter. In Math we will investigate area and perimeter. On Monday I would like to go ahead with our plan of making apple cinnamon ornaments. Please look over the attached document that describes the materials that we will need. I plan on doing this activity from 9:30-10:30 on Monday and could also use any extra sets of hands!
The attached document was also sent home in your child’s daily folder on Thursday. It includes information about our Winter Celebration on Wednesday, December 19. If you have signed up for a particular item and have a change of plans PLEASE let me know as soon as possible so that I can make sure our students have a wonderful Winter party!
