Extra Gym Time

As part of our reward system, the students can earn an extra PE activity. Happily, all of the children in our class had enough popcorn to participate:)

Notes from other subjects:

Science - We are beginning our Matter and Energy module. This will continue throughout the 1st quarter. Ask your child to share with you some of the activities and concepts explored in class.

Math - Our 1st chapter deals with geometry. Our current vocabulary includes: points, lines, segments, rays, angles, and vertex.

Reading - We are reading the short novel, Be a Perfect Person in Just Three Days. There are several activities being completed in this unit.

Language - Thank you for helping you children with their homework the other night. Our "Great Person" essays are really shaping up.
