Excited learners!


Our students are amazing readers!  

Strategies to look for at home:
Laying the book down flat
Using one hand to hold the book down and one to point
Pointing to each word as it is read









We are practicing adding!  Students are learning that they don't have to start counting at "1" in order to add two numbers.  They are taught to begin with the highest number and "count on".



We also experimented with spatial reasoning by arranging square tiles.  The only rules - they all have to touch another square, and they all have to be in a group together.

If at all possible, send your child's Valentines to school by Thursday, so we can get them in their bags before Friday.
