A Note From Mrs. Waters
This was a very exciting week. We had a great field trip to the Al Khor Park on Monday. The students got to see some cool animals up close. On Tuesday, they enjoyed many activites that the PE teachers had planned for sports day. Then today we celebrated the 100th day of school with some fun activities.
The first grade Valentine’s Day Project will be due back by Monday, February 13th, which is the day we will have our Valentine’s party. Thank you for having your child continue to work on their kind notes to one another.
Let's Do the Math
Dear Parents,
If you could not attend last week's parent session for math, you have another opportunity! A video of the parent session, the problem set packet, answers, and the parent strategy letter are available to you on ASD Parent Math Resources. Simply click on Gr 1 and select Unit 4 Place Value, Addition and Subtraction to 40. This site will be updated throughout the year as resources become available.
Thanks,
Carol Little | Elementary Math Coordinator
