The Week on Feb. 13

 


Upcoming Events

Feb. 22 -Early Release Day @ 11:30

Feb. 24 -Cultures Around the World Marketplace  @ 8:30am

In our current Social Studies unit, students are researching cultures around the world. We are learning about the language, traditions, economy, and food of a given culture and will be putting this knowledge on display next Friday!

You are invited to attend our Culture Marketplace in the 2/3 classroom next Friday, February 24th at 8:30am (following Community Meeting). Students have been hard at work and are excited to show off what they know! We hope to see you there. I will be sure to take plenty of pictures for those who can't make it!

February Break- Feb. 27- Mar. 7

PBIS School Wide Celebration
On Monday, we celebrated using our PAWS in school by taping people up onto the wall! Each student added a piece of tape and really enjoyed this fun celebration. 
Students have the opportunity to join the PBIS team and add their ideas for future celebrations. 



Fundations/ Spelling
This week, the first and second graders began one last unit of study before February break. Students continue to learn new Power Words and have begun to dig into welded sounds (ing, ung, ong, ang) and the y was a vowel. 






First Grade Math 

The first graders are finishing up Unit 4 this week. Students learned to use a number line to add and subtract single digit numbers, and began working with multiples of ten. In class, we played a fun game called Super Frogs where we practiced all of these skills. Later in the week, we began to apply our knowledge of skip counting by tens. Students used bundles of popsicle sticks to skip count off decade by tens i.e. 4, 14, 24, 34, 44, 54, 64, 74, 84, 94, 104. 

When we return from February Break, we will begin unit 6. We will return to unit 5 later in the school year.
