January 7 newsletter


A peek at our week
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas.  It is nice to be settling into a routine at school.  This week, we have read stories about shadows.  We traced our shadows in the morning and at noon and the children were amazed at how they had changed.  We are also working on finding the main idea and details in the stories we are reading.  In writing, we are working on adding details to our writing.  In math, we are working on subtraction and using addition to help us solve subtraction problems.
