Students finished their reading and spelling tests today. They are getting much better at writing complete sentences and checking their own spelling. In math we reviewed how to put fractions in order, how to use the metric system, and then we started a sheet that will review elapsed time, identifying points, lines, etc and measuring angles using a protractor and subtraction.
In the afternoon students did Show and Tell and then went to the k-2 music program in the auditorium. The exciting news today was that on our field trip, in addition to ice skating and the museum, we also get to spend 90 minutes at the jump zone! On Monday we will send home release forms that must be signed for any student to play at the jump zone. Please make sure your student returns these on Tuesday so we can get that paper work done quickly.
The pink homework forms should be coming home today. Students have been cautioned that these pages are their responsibility. However, when you sign them, please take a glance and make sure they are doing their work well. Thanks!

Hi I'm not an educator, but an Engineer. You might find my blog entry The Metric System for MacGyver of interest for teaching your children. You can see it at:
