A Note From Mrs. Waters
Today a binder of math games was sent home in your child's home folder in a brown envelope. Some of these are games we have played before, and many we will be playing in class after the new year. Please feel free to use these as a fun way to keep your child's skills sharp over the break. The cards needed for each game are included with the packet on yellow card stock. Please keep this game binder because we will be using them as part of the homework assignments.
International week was lots of fun and a big success! The students looked great everyday. Thank you for all of your support during this week.
