It was a terrific Tuesday in room 204. We worked really hard on our wiki page today. Today we had some visitors from the 5/6 team tell us about a new initiative called “Trash Free Fridays.” Ask your child about it because we are going to try it this week!During math we practiced lots of skills and managed to play a fun game of multiplication fact platter…. enjoy the video.
*Please encourage your child to bring a water bottle to class so he/she does not have to leave class when thirsty!
IT IS IMPORTANT FOR YOUR CHILD TO BRING SHARPENED PENCILS TO SCHOOL EACH DAY! PLEASE PROVIDE YOUR CHILD WITH A PERSONAL PENCIL SHARPENER TO KEEP IN HIS/HER BINDER!!!
