 Hello Families, 

Here are a few reminders: 

• There is no school until Tuesday of next week
• Swimming permission forms are due today. If you have not returned your child's forms, please remember to do so Tuesday

We had a very short week this week. We created mathematical art based on the work of Kandinsky by incorporating what we have learned about angles, shapes, and types of lines. In Math, we learned the box method strategy to multiply 2x1 and 3x1-digit numbers. Our fable exploration continued and students worked on making predictions and identifying the moral in their assigned fable. Mission Impossible was set up by staff in the gym this week and students were able to put their gymnastics practice to use while making their way carefully through the course. Today was the last day of our targeted literacy groups for this round and new groups/focuses will be created later in the term. Students also created Valentine's bags today and enjoyed passing out Valentines to their classmates.
