We must first begin by saying a giant THANK YOU to all of our amazing families for attending our conferences. We had 100% of our families come and that is outstanding! The children were thrilled to share their information with you, and we were thrilled to have an opportunity to visit with everyone.
During the conferences, we introduced the First in Math program to everyone. We check the students’ progress every day and are so excited be able to celebrate their accomplishments. Keep up the great work.
Here is the First in Math link in case you need it:
We are sure enjoying our first Unit of Inquiry (Who We Are). We have begun to take a close look at what makes each of us special and unique. It is so interesting to hear the children realize and verbalize their unique qualities. With Thanksgiving upon us, one aspect we have touched upon is our family traditions. Please continue to discuss your family traditions at home. The children were very interested to learn that what they may do/eat to celebrate is not what everyone else may do. J
As we have been reading about Thanksgiving and looking more closely into the origin, we discovered that China celebrates their harvest with a Moon Festival in mid-autumn. Although that time has passed, Mrs. Snyder’s class wanted to obtain the traditional Mooncakes to sample at school. Koko’s Bakery (Payne Ave) had a few boxes left and the class was able to enjoy a small sample on Friday. What fun!!
Remember there is no school on November 24-26. Have a wonderful vacation!
