Hi Parents!

Here is what we did today!

We did music. We played a game with number cards. We played our instruments that many times. We also did a brain break. (Carmel Grace)

We did closing meeting and snack. (Isaac)

We did Daily 5. (Britt)

We did math. We learned about pennies and dimes. They have presidents on the front. A penny is 1 cent and a dime is 10 cents. (Russell)

We played a teens game. We had to try and find the number that matches the 10’s frames. (Ismael)

We did the poem. We put it in our poetry folders. (Emma)

We did morning buzz. We talked about our weekend. We also passed the bear around the circle and talk about our favorite sport. (Blake)

We did project. It was a groundhog. We used a black piece of paper for the shadow. We used brown paper for the hole. The groundhog pops out of the top. (Maclyn)

We watched a video of the groundhog. He saw his shadow. It means 6 more weeks of winter. (Dempsey)

We did math workstations. (AJ)

Mrs. Hotchkiss read us a book called Substitute Groundhog. (Madelynn)

Today is Groundhog Day! (Ismael)

Today we had a great day! (Joshua)

We did the weather. (Wilson)

Reminder! No school on Monday. It is a teacher work day.

In the folder you will find a Social Growth and Work Habits report. Please look this over, discuss it with your child, initial at the bottom, and return it to school in the folder on Tuesday.

Reading bags are also coming home today! Please let your child read these books to you this weekend. These books and bags need to be returned to school on Tuesday so the kids have the books for Daily 5 reading time. They do not have new reading group books this week because I am doing assessments to prepare for PTC. Hopefully new books will be coming home in 2 weeks!

You will also find a Parent Teacher Conference schedule. Please let me know ASAP if you need a different time.

Please fill out the pre-conference survey as soon as you can and return it in the folder. This will help me prepare for our conference time together.

I have also included a note about Valentine’s Day! Please let me know if you have any questions! Hopefully you can make it to the party on the 14th at 2:20 pm!

Have a great weekend!
