Students may wear their pajamas on Friday. Students may bring slippers with them to wear in the classroom, but must wear regular shoes to school for going to activities and recess. Your child may also bring a mug from home for hot chocolate.
Math, Science, and Social Studies
In fluency this week we will continue to focus on the 8 facts. Students have fact cards in their zipper pouch to practice at home this week. Please make sure your child practices these facts for 10-15 minutes a night. Students will take their accuracy check this Wednesday.
Science-We completed our Energy, Force and Motion unit last week. We had a lot of fun and learned about momentum, acceleration, and friction. Our lab on Friday also taught students the importance of wearing a seatbelt and the dangers of not one. This week we will do 2 stem labs where students will be constructing a shelf for their elf and Santa's parachute. We are going to have a great week in Science!!
