The Weber Weekly

 

I wanted to thank the families of Mia, Jonathan, and Christoper for being our Snazzy Snack shoppers for the month of February.  We made "Berry Good Pizzas" last week and they were a big hit! 

I also want to thank all of you who donated goodies for our Valentine's Day party.  The kids had a lot of fun!  Also, thank you to all of our wonderful volunteers who made the party a success! 

We started a new science unit this week on living and nonliving things.  The kids had a blast being nature detectives as we explored the outdoors searching for living and nonliving things.  We learned about the different parts of a plant and the nutrients that plants need to survive.

In language arts, we're continuing to learn about fiction and nonfiction characteristics.  We're currently studying and researching presidents.  The kids will eventually use their facts to write an expository paper on a president. 

Everyone is doing an awesome job with cursive handwriting!  We have about ten more lowercase letters to learn before we move into the uppercase letters.  We're also working on our first expository paper in writing.  We researched facts about firefighters and are currently working on publishing our findings. 

In math, we've moved into 3-digit addition and subtraction with regrouping.  We're using models and strategies based on place value to add and subtract within 1000. 

Don't forget the Fun Fair is tomorrow from 11:00-3:00 here at the school. 

Have a great weekend!!
