Between the election, one full day of school and two half days, its been a crazy week.
Back to normal next week.
We wrote another informational book in writing. They are working hard on stretching out words and adding details to their pictures. We read a lot of informational books, learning about fiction vs nonfiction. We are finishing up a math unit on comparing the lengths of objects and using words like longer and shorter and we learned how a number line can help us find one more or one less. We also finished up our social studies unit on American Symbols (the flag, Statue of Liberty, Mt. Rushmore, bald eagle and the Liberty Bell). Today, we talked about Veterans Day and what it means to be free.
We also had an assembly with three former Redskins players. They talked to us about teamwork and being respectful even when playing sports.
I'd like to thank everyone for coming in for conferences. It has been shown that students do better in school when parents are involved.
Have a great weekend.
