The kids were enthralled by our story HONK!. It is the story of a swan that dances ballet. She practices and gets to dance at the opera house. We are applying the theme to ourselves by writing about what we can do. We are using the sentence stem “I can . . .”. It has been enlightening to hear about their talents. Remember to read homework each night Math We learned a new dice game, sum of two dice. You can play at home. It is developing our addition skills and our ability to see quantities quickly. Writing: We are completing an “I can” web as a prewrite and will transfer our ideas into two sentences. Science/Social Studies: We are exploring animals in winter and the tracks that animals make. If your family has any items to enhance our learning please feel free to send them with your student along with any special instructions.  Thank you! We are preparing for conferences and conducting a few assessments. If your student mentions a test, yes, we are interviewing students about their math knowledge Keep practicing Kind Regards, Mrs. Starkovich
