MATH STARS!

Math Stars are HERE!

Our class will begin Math Stars this weekend! Math Stars will be a weekly math program. It is extra curricular and is completely the choice of the family/student to participate. It is an extra opportunity for students to extend their math learning and thinking. Information on Math Stars will come home in the students' Friday folders. The week's work is not due until the following Friday. The students have the weekend and the week to complete the work. The students will chart their progress in our class. Happy Problem-Solving!

Off to a great start!

Welcome back, Minnows and families, after a nice long weekend!

Wasn't it fun to enjoy our unoffical last weekend of Summer. I hope you got out in the sunshine and had some fun! :) Fall is just around the corner and were are diving into our learning as we dive into our second full week of school. The students have been working hard learning about maps and directions, lifecycles, centers, odd and even numbers and problem solving. This week we look forward to practicing our centers so that hopefully next week they will be up and running! :) This week we will also be doing a very special activity for our grandparents! Sunday is Grandparents Day! Be sure to tell your loved ones how much they mean to you!

I'm looking forward to another great week of learning with you!

Love,
Miss Mallory
