This week we will be beginning a new unit in mathematics on Geometry.  Please check out Mrs. Fernandez's Flipped Lessons for an introduction to three dimensional shapes. Students should be able to view the 2-3 minute video from a mobile device or home computer. Students are always given opportunities to watch teacher videos in class on IPAD's or school computers, if they are unable to view them at home. Be on the look out for student examples!
Field trip permission slips go home on Tuesday, March 26. Please return the form  by Friday, March 29th. We will be going to the Junior Museum on Thursday, April 4th. Please remember to send in a bagged lunch for that day.

Our first graders are Springing into Second Grade! We are working on increasing our reading fluency and reading comprehension. Please encourage your child to read everyday.  Take time to ask your child  questions about what they are reading. "Once you learn to read, you will be forever free."— Frederick Douglass
