I am not sending homework or Friday folders this week. Please enjoy quality time with family and friends. Make sure your child continues to read at home and practice math facts (subtraction, multiplication, and division). Enjoy!

Last week the students worked together to design and create ugly Christmas sweaters. This week I had the pleasure of wearing these festive creations!

This week we started introducing the topic of division. We are working hard on understanding the relationship between multiplication and division. In order to do so, we spent time this week breaking things into groups, practicing fact families, and playing a variety of games.

On Thursday we held student senate elections. We had five people run and it was almost a five-way tie. We are very proud of each and every one of our candidates. Once the results were tallied, our class elected Reed and Emily to represent us.
