Hello Room 13 Families,

Thank you all for the overwhelming support you have shown me since I shared my news of me being pregnant!  You are all so wonderful and I'm lucky to be surrounded by such supportive families!

Last week we started yoga and had a beekeeper come to our class to do a presentation on bees!  Ask your student about it.

Thank you for coming to our Writing Celebration last week.  The kids were so excited to share all of their hard work with you.  This week we are starting a new writing unit on Poetry.

In Readers Workshop we are beginning to talk about retelling and ways that readers think about books to grow ideas.

In math, first graders are learning about doubles facts such as 2+2, 4+4, 5+5 etc...  Second graders are working on doubles facts, fact families and memorizing basic addition and subtraction facts.

Ask Me About:
