It felt quite springlike this week! I hope we get a few more days like that soon!
We've been working hard this week-learning how to write reviews, comparing and contrasting books using a Venn diagram, starting our geometry unit, and learning about Acceptance with Mrs. Patch. We'll continue all of this great work next week!
Our Mystery Reader this week was Mr. Michael Tooher! He is the president of Mrs. Cole's theater club, but he is also a consultant who helps people with pyrotechnic special effects for concerts, films, tv shows, and other productions. He specializes in the safety aspects of SFX. Quite a cool job!
I sent an email on Monday with a list of our first names for children who would like to bring in valentines. We can't distribute valentines that have candy/other food attached.
Nearly everyone has read 100 books! Don't forget to tally and return those reading calendars! February break is a great time to catch up :)
Don't forget to find a poem for your Poem Pocket! The criteria are on a sheet in the green Homework Folder. If your child didn't return a homework folder yet, I am sending the criteria in today's Eagle News.
Here are some pictures of our math work this week-we are having fun and learning a lot about shape attributes and spatial relationships.
Thank you for all of the donations for the 100 Day Food Drive! We contributed 2 bags of personal care items! Outstanding!
Monday will be the 100th Day of School! We will do some 100th day activities, but our big celebration will be on the 120th day in March! 😄
Thank you for helping us make sure that we have a snack and a pair of gloves or mittens each day...
I'm going to help build the set for Biddeford City Theater's next show tomorrow, then spend Sunday preparing for my conference in North Carolina. I hope you have a fun weekend with family and friends! It sounds like several of the kids will be attending the Father-Daughter Dance! Enjoy!
