Happy President’s Day Weekend!

As you all know, it has been a pretty packed week. In between the play and the Valentine’s Party we did get some other work done as well, including; the estimation jar of paper clips, spelling quiz on suffixes, subtraction practice, Mexican geography and new books in reading class. I suggested to the students to try to get some reading done on book report books this weekend so it doesn’t become too last minute. Most students have the blank books they need to start their reports, if not, they can easily be made at home or I can give them more next week. As with all projects, I encourage rough drafts, pencils and making light lines on which to write their words.

The end of the trimester is next Friday and I look forward to seeing you all at conferences on March 1 and 2. I’m glad we have time to catch our breath before our next big event, the Fiesta!  The play was just wonderful, they all did such a great job. They had such a blast working with Mrs. Brentano and learned so much at the same time. Thanks to all of you that were able to attend and the snacks for both events were just right! Thank you parents!  I have posted a slide show of the play below.

If you have any questions about anything in the classroom let me know, otherwise, have a wonderful long weekend!
