Hello, everyone!

Wow-it is certainly feeling wintry this week!  The weather is perfect for our learning about Polar Regions!  We saw a film about Arctic vs. Antarctic animals, then created a "map" of the world showing which animals live in which places.  Some animals migrate between the poles!  We also revised some of our writing, did some computation review, and read books about snow, winter, and polar animals.  One book was about "Snowflake" Bentley, a man who learned how to use a camera to take pictures of individual snowflakes!  There is a short film version of the book on Amazon Prime, if you are a member-just search for Snowflake Bentley. ⛄

Congratulations to these friends in our class who have read at least 100 books so far this year!
Darius, Damon, Aubrey, Jordan, Molly, Jack, Brielle, Rosie, Stephen, Kendall, Elliott, Soren, Clemmie, and Kai!  Make sure to tally and total your books each month! :)

Congratulations to Rosie and Brielle on earning the privilege of taking home Darla and Kola!  Amelia and Darius hosted our bears last weekend. :)

Be sure to check out the Upcoming Events page!

I intended to send home the February book order forms as well as January's, but they have still not reached my mailbox.  You should be able to access them online, if you order that way. :) . Please submit online and paper orders no later than Monday so I can place all of the orders together.  Thanks!

Enjoy your chilly weekend!  It's opening weekend for the play I'm in, which is very exciting.  I hope you all have some fun plans as well!
