Good Afternoon,
I hope everyone found a way to enjoy the snow, the break or even both during out time away from school. I want to thank all of those who were able to come to some of our basketball games at the end of the season. It was so great to get two games in our gym and have such a huge audience.
Here is a quick review of our three day week. On Wednesday, we had a new student arrive in our classroom. Her name is Amelia and she is in 2nd grade. She came to us from Florida and was born in Russia. She has quickly jumped into our routine and the students seem to enjoy engaging with her.
Our specials this week were PE, and French. In PE class, the kids have been playing a version of capture the flag. There is lots of communicating and running going on in this activity. In French, the students are practicing using french words that deal with feelings.
The students also finished up their President's Day writing that we started before the break. The students read a book about, took notes on and shared out their findings on President Washington and President Lincoln. They then wrote about their learning.
That is all for now. I hope you all have a great weekend.
Peace,
Mr. Young
