Happy Earth Day!


Today we read the stories The Lorax and Dear Children of the Earth. We talked about ways that we can help keep our planet clean and safe. Each student took a “Lorax” picture and wrote about 4 ways that they would help the Earth if they were a Lorax (pictures will be posted soon).

In math, students practiced writing amounts of money in dollar and cent notation. We learned why there is a zero in $12.04 and how it is not written as $12.4 because that would be a different amount of money.  Students then used a special code to figure out how much different words cost including their name and two vocabulary words.
Hopefully tomorrow’s commute won’t be too bad and the snow will miss us!!! The kids and I are ready for some much needed sun and warmth! Have a wonderful evening.

**If you would like to chaperone our field trip on Thursday at 12:15, please let me know. We are still in need of volunteers! **
