Well it appears as if winter has finally arrived! Please remind your child to dress appropriately for the weather and bring cold weather gear to school. We do try to get the students outside for recess so winter coats, hats gloves and scarves are a necessity for outdoor play.
We have jumped right back into the swing of things in Room 001. We are working feverishly on our job projects- I am impressed on the effort displayed so far! We also have started a new novel in literature circles. I think they are going to really enjoy this book as we follow a journey of a 10 year old boy and his dog as they try to win a dogsled race. In Math we continue to develop strategies for multi digit multiplication.
Tomorrow, 1/6/16, we are taking our ELA District Common Assessment. We will be missing Social Studies time so our Midwest Region test will be moved to Friday, 1/8/16.
Due to the doctor's orders, my last day at Willett will be this Friday. We are SO lucky to have Mrs. Hopkins join us for the duration of the time that I will be out on maternity leave. She will be with us on Thursday and Friday this week for some transition time. The students are already familiar with her as she has subbed in our classroom before. I will be updating this website periodically with pictures and updates. Stay tuned!
Upcoming Dates:
1/15 Half day. School begins at 8:45 and dismissal will be at 12:30
1/18 No School
