Good afternoon!

I hope you all had a wonderful long weekend! Today was our pancake-eating contest. Good job Kappa for finishing all the pancakes first!!

A few important reminders/important dates

We are running low on Lysol/Clorox wipes. If we could get some in that would be greatly appreciated. We are completely out of Kleenex and lots of our friends have colds. If we could get some in it would be fantastic! Water too!!

Pre-registration forms due February 20th. This is in order to hold your spot!!

Pancake breakfast Tuesday February 24. Pancake order forms must be brought in by Friday February 20!

Oral Presentations Thursday February 26^th. In class oral presentations Friday February 20^th!

MATH

Today we worked on how to create a survey and bar graphs. This will be useful for our unit test. Our unit test will be on Thursday and Friday of this week. It will consist of creating a survey, collecting data, and then creating a bar graph, circle graph, and pictograph. Two periods should be more then enough time. I have sent home a review for the students.

LANGUAGE

The students worked on spelling lesson 14. They wrote the words in their agenda and then did the corresponding activities.

U.O.I.

Today we used this period to go over our speeches and poems.

Parents please help your children in anyway possible. I am looking for hook (something to grab the audiences attention), an introduction telling us their topic, paragraphs talking about different things about their topic (for example if they are talking about hockey some paragraphs they may want to talk about are rules, equipment, different leagues, etc). I then would like a closing statement tying everything in. Practice, practice, practice!!

Akash, Seanna, Shrihan, and Sofia playing house games this morning.

Have a wonderful evening!
