Dear caring families,
This week we:
* Added a piece to chess. It is called the "rook". The rook can move forward, sideways or backwards as many spaces as it wants in a straight line. It can NOT go diagonal or jump over pieces. Today we played with the pawns, the bishops and the rooks. The goal was to get one pawn to the other side.
* We are having gym this afternoon with Mr. Marta's class. We will play Dungeon Ball. It will be fun! On Wednesday we played Everybody's It Tag and Octopus.
* In music we played Make a Pizza and we used the sticks and the shaker eggs. There was a tiny circle for the pizza dough. We had to listen for the rhythm in the music and then we did different movements like rolling, patting and shaking the cheese on.
* Today is fantastic Friday. We pick a stick with someone's name on it. Whoever it is we spy on them for the whole day. Then in the afternoon we compliment them for something nice they did today.
* In math we have been learning how to add up coins. We also learned the difference between dollars and cents. It took us a few days because it was hard.
* This morning we had library. We got to pick a new book and read in the library.
* Today is P.B.'s birthday. She isn't here so we will celebrate her birthday on Tuesday.
* Yesterday we met our new student teacher. His name is Mr. K. He will start teaching after Christmas Break.
* This week L.W., P.B. and E.B. shared their writing with the class.
Remember there is no school for students on Monday!
Have a terrific long weekend!
