We got right back to work after our winter break! We are reading a story called Chinatown in language arts. We're learning new vocabulary and working on making judgments as we read.
In math we are working on mental subtraction. We're learning strategies to solve two-digit problems in our heads. Our next chapter will be written two-digit subtraction. Yesterday we learned how to play "Base Block Subtraction" on our blog. Any practice can count in the planner.
We are studying rocks with Mrs. Bray. It will tie in well with our field trip to the museum on January 19.
We had a great time at our Polar Express party in December! It was so much fun to see the kids in their pajamas. We read the book, watched the movie, and did several related activities. We topped it off with cookies and milk!
Thank you for all the wonderful Christmas gifts. I told the kids that they spoiled me! : )
We made New Year's resolutions and posted them on our bulletin board in the hallway.
We’ve had a great time with Chinese New Year. We learned a song in music, made dragons, and had a parade through the school. See the pictures on our blog, mrsadams2.blogspot.com. Gung Hay Fat Choy!
Our stars of the week have been Gavin and Easton. We've enjoyed getting to know them better!
Book orders are due on Friday, January 13. We have earned several free books for our classroom. Online orders get us even more free books!
Our parent volunteer calendar is on the back. Thanks to all of you who help in so many different ways!
Thank you for your support, and feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
