Important News:
Geometry: We are beginning to learn about geometry, which comes with a lot of new
vocabulary. To help out, we are making geometry word books. Ask your child if they can
tell you what a polygon or a quadrilateral is.
Math Wall Goals: The next time you are at school, check out our new math wall goals.
They are posted in the hallway in front of the cafeteria. When your child makes their first
goal, they get a flower with their name on it. Each time they make the next goal, they get
a sticker to place on their flower.
Goal 1:I can complete 48 even and odd problems in 3 minutes.
Goal 2: I can complete 9 telling time to the nearest 5 minutes problems and 6 counting change
problems in 3 minutes.
Goal 3: I can complete 12 telling time and 6 counting change problems in 3 minutes
Library books: This is the last week for library. If your child has any library books at
home, please be sure to turn them in.
Insect Discovery Visit: One of the U of A Entomology graduate students will be visiting
our classrooms this week! They will be bringing live bugs for us to observe and learn
about!
