 Dear Parents,

     Hope you have been enjoying our cooler weather.  It's great for polar bears!  It does get students rushing from place to place.
     Fifth grade math students will be getting into division and geometry before long.  We've been doing graphs lately. In reading, the 5th graders will be doing a novel before long as well as working on a Christmas project.  That should be most interesting.
     Fourth grade math students are working on multiplication with more than one and two digit numbers.  That's a bit of a struggle at times, but we will continue to work on it.  Then fourth graders will also have a touch of geometry.
     My third grade intervention classes continue to work with thinking skills of different types.  You should ask your third graders what they've been doing.  After Christmas, we will begin the third grade AIG pullout which will meet twice a week for 30 minutes at a time.  That will continue until the end of the year.
     Kindergarten through second grade continues with a variety of activities ranging from matching shapes in kindergarten to reading maps in second grade.  I'm also considering some "Problem Based Learning" at this level after Christmas.  This is when students are presented with a situation for which they find a solution on their own working in groups.  The solution should apply to "real world" and 21st century reality.  This can be lots of fun to see what these students develop.
    
Hope your holidays are great!!!
