Week of February 4th-8th, 2019

Lower Elementary had an exciting week. Classroom 1 and 2 went to see the play "A Hundred Dresses" on Tuesday. Classroom 3 will be attending this coming Tuesday.  Many of you may remember this book from your own childhood. The message of acceptance and of not teasing someone for being different is a valuable lesson for students of all ages.

This week students were given a lesson on the commutative properties of addition and multiplication. We will be practicing jobs pertaining to the associative and identity properties as well. Students worked on fraction word problems, angles, homographs, and possessive nouns.

We started an exciting unit on Black History this week. Students learned about civil rights activist this week. Our focus was on Ruby Bridge and Audrey Faye Hendricks. Next week, we will look at the contribution of African American inventors. Students continued working on their Native American research projects. In science, the students learned more about the respiratory system. We looked at how the lungs work as well as why we yawn.

We have several things coming up next week so please mark your calendars.
