Hello,
We won't be having a big party to end the week. We will do some fun activities at the end of the day, however. Please don't bring any sweets in for these activities. Our class policy on sweets and snacks hasn't changed. I'm asking you to get permission before showing up with a couple dozen cupcakes or treats. I felt badly that I had to send a little one home with a box of cookies to bring back home last week, but I need to put my foot down. We have varying diets in the class, and I don't think that it is fair to put them on the spot, every time someone brings in some homemade goodies.
We're working on a little review and a little symmetry this week in math. Just a little break from fractions before we jump back into them in January.
We shared writing topics today. Quite a change from this time last year. What is your child writing about?
Tiger beat Arctic Hare today by one vote. Every vote counts! The Tiger made the finals for the second year in a row. We'll see if it can top the winner of tomorrow's Sumatran Rhino - Fennec Fox match up. Some took today's loss hard. It is nice to see them put their heart into their work, just sad when it doesn't pay off.
Thanks for reading,
Mr. Shea
