This week we have focused on ways we can show kindness to others. We are learning about "the same as" in Math and added polar bears to our backgrounds that were painted last week. Yesterday, the few of us that were left after the skiers took off, went for a hike to the outdoor classroom with Ms. Tara and her couple students. Ms. Sandy joined us because it was such a nice day and we had a ball speculating about animal tracks, noticing the cool lichen on different trees and trying to find the source of the water coming down the mountain. We have the best backyard!
Keep sending in those 100th day projects. We love practicing counting to 100 and seeing all the things you can use to make 100 and how they look so different!
Students will exchange valentines in class on the 13th. I encourage making these (simple) to practice writing for independent study. Class list: Bea, Addyson, Jasper, Ingrid, Wes, Hunter, Emmett, Linnea, Adeline, Sienna, James, Landry, Emilia, Pearl, Ava (new student starting Monday)
