Weekly Newsletter – 2/25/2022
Happy Friday!
We have been busy this week! We celebrated Two’s Day on 2/22/2022 with some math games & writing prompts. We wrote about what they think they will be doing in 2/22/2042 (20 years from now), which was fun. We also started doing Out of the Box Thursday – which is where they use their creativity to make part of a picture into something else. They had to use half of a butterfly wing and completely create a different picture as they were not allowed to draw a butterfly.
In English, we read and studied our first biography story. We learned about the life of Cesar Chavez and learned how he was a hero. We also began talking about what can make people heroes. In math, we started learning about three digit addition, which they learned is just like two digit addition with the hundreds place value added. Here was a SILLY but catchy song that we did today.
