A Note From Ms. D
I hope you had a wonderful international week! Here at school we stayed very busy with special events like the flag ceremony, visiting the Qatari Culture Tent, the international buffet, and our special country explore time projects. Our focus of 'one tribe' was felt throughout the halls and classrooms as students bravely tried new food, observed new dress, listened to different languages, and socialized with peers from all over the world. Thank you for all the support you have given to your child and the school in this important time.
Next week, we will have a full day Tuesday, our holiday party, as well as winter rotation activities to celebrate and socialize with other classes. It will be tons of fun!!
Please see the special announcements below for more details about our week and upcoming changes in our Math homework.
The blog has been updated with pictures and video from the week.
Sincerely,
Ms. D

New Math Games Packet
Today a binder of math games was sent home in your child's home bag 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.
Have a great break!!
