Classroom News:

Huge THANK YOU to Joe, Peggy, Crystal, and Kadie for joining us on our field trip. I had a great time and the kids were exhausted when we got back to school. I took tons of pictures but I lost them all when I had to sync my phone with an old back up. Sorry!

 Literacy/Social Studies Focus:

This past week has been a big focus on getting ready for career day. The kids have finished the rough drafts of their speeches and we will be practicing starting tomorrow.

Math  Focus:

The mathematicians are loving geometry! We have worked on decomposing (breaking apart) and composing (putting together) shapes. We have also studied the attributes that are common among different shapes. This coming week we are exploring fractions!
Special Events:
We have a lot going on at school this week:

Monday: JFK is filming their own version of Happy! Here is Milton's version:

Thursday: Wellness connection with the our middle school buddies (more information later)

Friday: CAREER DAY! We hope you can come to First Grade Career Day! It is in the Performing Arts Center at 1:00. Hope to see you there!
