Friday!! :-)

Hello! I hope that this finds you well and ready for the weekend! Here's a quick look of what we did today:
Math- can you believe that they are actually starting the foundational concepts of Algebra? We worked on patterns. AABAABAAB and so on. If you would like to work on this at home you can use drawings or actual manipulatives for your child to figure out patterns. This is VERY difficult for some, so practice is always a great idea.
Reading- We were able to retell the story, We are So Proud. The students enjoyed coming up to the computer and moving the pieces into the correct order. You can ask them to retell the story to you. They also came home with a sticker on their shirt that says: Ask me about the word: Cooperate. They should be able to tell you that it means "to work together".
We used white boards today to work on handwriting and their reader/writer notebooks went home today as well. If you have time to work the rest of the sections over with your child that is awesome practice for them. This is just some of what we worked on today. Thank you so much for all the love and encouragement you show your child everyday! We have an amazing class!! ~Mrs. Hansen

P.S. If you have the sheet for a sack lunch on the half day of school the 23rd please be sure to turn it in. Also, please fill out the class address form if you would like to be on the class directory.
