READING

     Next week we will be researching the hippopotamus and the tortoise.  We will be writing a paragraph on one of the animals after we learn facts and information about them.  We will be learning about pronouns.


                           MATH

                                    In math we start a new topic on mental subtraction.  We will learn strategies to find parts of 100 and subtracting multiples of 10. 

Junior Achievement
Today we had our first session with Ms. Sallie Lupescu from the McDonald’s Corporation.  She is teaching us about communities, jobs and businesses. 

Recess
          We go outside for recess unless the wind chill is below 20 degrees.  The children will need to bring snow pants and boots in order to play in the snow.  Any child who needs to stay inside for recess will need a doctor's note.


  
Snack
Please remember when packing your child’s snack for school that peanuts and peanut products are not allowed for snack time due to peanut allergies.
