A Big Bite

 

Good afternoon!

I have loved having ALL of the children in school this week, each day!  It has been so good to see all of their faces at once and not on a screen.  It has been a great first week.

We have started a unit of study on measurement and geometry in math.  These are real world skills that you can practice with your student at home. We are almost finished reading The One and Only Ivan and anticipate finishing the book next week.  Our observations of animals on various web cams have revealed some interesting sights, ask your student all about it.

 We have begun our final unit of study for the year in science and we are studying physical science.  There are many experiments with this unit and we are all working to make as many of the lessons as hands on as possible in this environment. 

We are building our classroom community and relationships and we are focusing on routines and expectations for classwork and homework.  This is going well but everyone will need more time to master these skills. 

I am looking forward to another great week!

Have a great weekend!
