Virtual Field Trips
Being stuck in the house or in your own backyard may be getting a little repetitive.
Why not go on a virtual adventure of someplace new!
When you visit, send me an email to let me know about it. Tell me one thing you learned, and one thing you still wonder!
Enjoy!

We hope you had a restful and relaxing vacation with your family. It was wonderful to see all the smiling faces and get back into routine.
By far the most exciting part of the week was our state float parade! We are so proud of all the hard work and creativity the children put into their research and float building!
Other things to ask your child about:
~Sticks & bundles
~Add funny little extras to opinion writing
~Mystery Doug
Have a great weekend!

Dear Families,
This week we were immersed in our study of the United States. We continued our state research and began creating artifacts to decorate state floats. On Wednesday with Mrs. Courcelle, children learned to program Bee Bots to travel across the United States.
In math the children we presented with a story situation that was missing the question. In partnerships the children created questions that could be asked given the situation. Students visited different problems written on posters and worked together to solve the problem.
Other things to ask your child about:
~Playing Capture the Clock in Number Corner
~Creating artifacts for state floats
~Chester's Way and making connections with characters
~Gathering more evidence from books to support opinions about characters
We hope you enjoy time with your family. We look forward to seeing everyone back on March 4th!
