WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 16TH

Hello Parents! Hope everyone had a great weekend. 

THANK YOU!
I just wanted to say thank you for the donations of snacks, playdoh, Simon, treasure chest items, and the soccer ball for the classroom. I really appreciate it. If anyone would like to help with donations, we still need hand sanitizer, clorox cleaning wipes or baby wipes (we clean the desks a lot) :), playground equipment (balls, jump ropes, etc.), brain teaser games, and we always need snacks. If anyone has a jigsaw puzzle they want to get rid of, I am looking to get one of those, also.

Thanks so much!

WHAT WILL YOUR CHILD BE LEARNING THIS WEEK?
In Language Arts, we will continue discussing how to analyze characters and visualizing as we read. 
In Science, we are beginning our unit on Matter. The students will have a digital lesson(s) they will complete, and we will be doing activities with matter in the classroom. They have already gotten a head start with this in the Science lab making pancakes and ice cream with Mrs. Knobbe.
In Math, we are continuing problem solving. Also, we will review identifying and counting bills and coins. This will move us into problem solving with money.
