Welcome Back!

Hey what a great short week to return to school on! We jumped right back into things we had focused on previous to our break. We continued work on our writing abiut Vermont History, reviewed our skills in multiplication, practiced some of our old routines, and learned some new ones.
Upon our return we found our school in a much different state than we left it. Our entrance is new, our gym-cafe-tori-nasium is different, even our classroom rug was new! As is to be exoected our class took all if these changes in stride as we quickly adapted to our new surroundings and the new routines that match them.
After out incredible field trip to the Vermont History museum the week before break, we have lots of informational writing to do! We are beginning the process of creating pieces of writing using Google Docs, and will eventually be publishing our work with embedded pictures from our trip.

Speaking of our trip, I realized i failed to post any pictures, here is one!

The tower was really cool, perhaps a bit slippery, but fun.

We also continued our work in math. We have been working with multiplication and all students successfully solved the expression 18 x 7! Check with your student to see how they solved it.
I hope you all have a restful and refreshing weekend, and let me know if you need anything from me!
