A little homework!
We will be celebrating the100th day of school on Thursday, February
23th. Please have your child complete a "100 challenge" and
send him/her to school with his/her master-piece on or around Feb.20th.
This is completely open to creativity and interest! For simplicity
sake, it might be easiest to place items on a sheet of paper, and sometimes
this works nicely, but it doesn't for all projects.
Some interesting projects of years past:
Lego made of 100 pieces
100 stickers
100 dried pasta noodles
100 paper clips clipped together like a chain
Jar of 100 jelly beans
100 thumb prints
100 fingers (20 handprints)
10 groups of 10 different items
We have and will continue to talk about using 10 groups of 10 to
get to 100. Please remind your child of this strategy as he/she
brainstorms ideas and work on his/her project. Counting by 10s to get to
100 once it is finished, would be GREAT!
Estimation is also a math skill that the kids can practice -
picking out household objects that they estimate may have enough for 100 for
example.
HAVE FUN!
I'm gathering flashlights for our upcoming study of light. If you have a spare flashlight at home that you can loan us for a couple of weeks, we would really appreciate it! Please mark your child's name on it.
Here's a look at our Valentine's mobiles that we made with our buddies yesterday.
Ms Frogley came in to lead us in some mindfulness yoga again today.
We learned about compassion and talked about how we could practice it.
We discussed our school's Code of Conduct.
We decorated our Valentine's bags today in preparation for Tuesday! So exciting!
Have a lovely Family Day long weekend! See you on Tuesday.
