Hello everyone!

Here's an update on what's happening in our classroom:

Math: We have just finished up a conceptual multiplication unit, Muffles Truffles and we are focusing on fact practice and reviewing strategies we learned in the beginning of the year. When we come back from vacation, we will dive right into our geometry unit so you may want to start talking about shapes and angles with your kiddos.

Social Studies/Reading: We are continuing to learn about the Wampanoag Native Americans in our current social studies unit. We will continue this unit for a week or so after break. Today, we discussed main idea and detail and used a graphic organizer to write down our facts.

Writing: We are in the middle of our informational writing unit. They will be writing in their journals and on the computer.  We are very excited to see the final results! Keep an eye out for how we will be publishing these stories; more later on that!

Valentine's Day: We are celebrating Valentine's Day this Friday. If you'd like your child to participate, please send in enough Valentine's for everyone in the class, though participation is not necessary. See our earlier email regarding Valentine's Day for more information. 

If you have any concerns or questions, please don't hesitate to contact us. Thanks again for all you do!
