January 3-6

  1. “Be always at War with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each New Year find you, a better person.” – Benjamin Franklin

Happy New Year!  I hope everyone had a restful and relaxing vacation.  We began the week by writing two New Year's Resolutions.  Each student made an improvement goal for school and home.  I was very proud of their thoughtful and reflective resolutions.  

We will finish Unit 4 in math this week.  Students designed rabbit pens for my bunny Mister today.  They had to use 24 feet of fencing as the perimeter for each pen.  Their objective was to find the pen with the largest area for Mister to enjoy.  We will discuss their responses tomorrow and work on finding the area of rectilinear figures.  We will review for the test on Thursday and the assessment will be given the following day.  Students will have a Home Link tonight and Wednesday.  A Review packet will go home for Thursday's night's assignment.

Our spelling rule this week involves words with a Short i sound.  Students will have a spelling assignment each night for homework.  

We are running extremely low on disinfectant wipes for the classroom.  We use them to clean desks and tables every single day.  Please consider donating wipes to the classroom.  Thank you! 

Have a wonderful week!  :)
