Broken Arrow Weekly Update

Looking Forward to the Week of February 6-10

Message from Mrs. Green

Paragraph picture
Happy Friday everyone! We had a great week at Broken Arrow. Our students were hard at work learning all about area and perimeter, the difference between multiples and factors, inferencing with text, lots of counting to 100 to celebrate the 100th Day of Kindergarten, learning about our new word of the month: HONESTY and much more! Check out the pictures below of our super Kindergartners celebrating their 100th day. Also, would you have known the answer to 3rd grade's question of the day in Ms. Hoy's class?


Thank you for everyone's patience and kindness as we tried out our new dismissal procedure this week. We are continuing to make adjustments inside and outside of the building to make this go as smooth as possible. If you have any feedback for us, please don't hesitate to reach out and email me at Amanda.Green@usd497.org


Thanks for checking out all of the fabulous things we have coming up in February in the information down below!
