Education Go Get It Week

This week is Education Go Get It Week. A week filled with many different activities that focus on college. Students are encouraged to wear their favorite college t-shirts all week. Monday students may wear a college cap for "Hats off to College", and Tuesday students are encouraged to wear sneakers as we "Step up for Education."

Science

Today during science we had a great lesson on magnetism, a physical property of matter. The students even discovered that our refridgerators have magnets. They each were given a paper clip to test it out once they get home. Hope they share the discovery with you.

Homework

Please make sure your child is reading each night as well as practice math facts. There are some websites on my blog as well as the school's website where the kids can practice math facts. You may also use flashcards or call them out while in the car. Tomorrow I am sending home a practice booklet for subtraction facts and multiplication facts. It is a great tool to use during homework. It has been awesome to see kids use their multiplication facts when problem solving.
