Parents,
Thank you so much for your help this week with our Heart Healthy Friendship Party. We had to hold it inside with the rain, and it still turned out great. (The 4th and 2nd grade teachers may not agree with us!) All of the stuff you donated made it that much better! The kids got their blood pumping and were able to enjoy some healthy snacks after, before passing out traditional Valentine’s.
Next week is a short week, as we have no school, but we still have a lot of curriculum packed in. We are going to complete a performance task in writing, transition into polygons and quadrilaterals while we close up area and perimeter with a performance task, and depending on time, we may finish our novel this week.
Next week is kindness week at school! This is what we have on tap academically for the next week:
- We are going to spread kindness and mindfulness throughout our academic content.
- Students will:
- Understand the function of adverbs in general and their functions in particular sentences.
- Understand how geography influences community location and development.
- Understanding that shapes in different categories (e.g., rhombuses, rectangles, and others) may share attributes, and that the shared attributes can define a larger category.
- Complete a writing an opinion writing performance task.
- Represent data in tables and graphical displays to describe typical weather conditions expected during a particular season.
We are continuing our pennies for patients drive. Students can use this link for donations as well: https://events.lls.org/pages/snv/Evelyn-Stuckey-Elementary-School-2019.
Nevada Reading Week starts February 25. I am putting together our calendar now. We will have a lot of guest readers!
I hope you have a great week!
