Tomorrow is PURPLE SHIRT DAY! 

Highlights of Our Learning

-We are learning about the __est word family this week. We enjoyed the story The Best Nest and have been working on reading and printing as many ___est words as we can. Today we practiced with a partner spelling out the _est words.
-We are continuing to talk, learn and write about kindness. What does kindness look like? How can we show kindness?
-This week students used having been using a picture of animals in winter as a writing prompt. They were also introduced to a writing rubric that illustrated that their BEST work will include a combination of copied and self-selected sentence starters and interesting details and describing words. It is expected that students will now complete three sentences during writing times. We have done 2 writing prompts this week.
- In math we are working on a math problem with animal feet in a pond. Children are coming up with various combinations of animal feet in a pond with pictures, numbers and words.
