A 'Whole' Lot of Fun

HI everyone,
Happy Monday!  I hope everyone enjoyed their weekends and all mom's received their 'breakfast in bed' and had their stories read to them!  I know that not everyone has a Keurig but I hope you can make use of it or the tea somehow. Many of the kids reported that their gifts were well recieved- great news.
This week is a bit calmer than last week. It was great to see all of you who were able to make it out to the BBQ and Fun Fair. Mac (my son) liked seeing everyone and getting candy (Thanks Daisy!).

Please find attached a few morning messages from last week and this morning. I know there are some errors still, but everyone's improving on their editing and revising skills.

In math we have switched gears from money to fractions- our words of the week are math based. Fraction, half, whole, parts, equal, quarter and third.  Students worked with tissue paper today to create and label fractions as part of a group.  We talked about numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number) as well. In literacy, we continue to work with descriptive texts. We read Owl Moon last week and that led us into similes and comparative language.

Yearbook sales have been extended until Thursday. $17.00 per book.  Also book orders are due on Wednesday. Thanks!
Alana
