"Let us love winter, for it is the spring of genius."
- Pietro Aretino
Happy Valentine's Day! We had a great start to our school week with time spent in Computer Lab. Students practiced signing in and working on the upcoming Smarter Balanced Test. Today they practiced the Math portion and next week we will take a lot at the Reading/LA section.
There will be no math homework tonight in honor of this special holiday. Students will only have a spelling assignment. Our rule this week involves words with long o. Students will have a spelling homework each night this week.
Our math lessons this week include learning the game Beat the Calculator to self assess automaticity with multiplication facts, constructing quadrilaterals and measuring and plotting distances to the nearest half inch. Students will have a Home Link on Wednesday and Thursday evenings.
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all of the wonderful parents for your support throughout the year. I appreciate my volunteers, party planners, and donators of goods and supplies. I am grateful for your help, communication and kindness.
Have a fantastic week! :)
