Weekly Update

 Dear Parents,
Here are a few things we have been up to this week......

Mrs. Zuber came in and assisted students in decorating Valentine buckets.   She also brought in a lovely "Valentine Tree" that the class had made.   It's gorgeous!

Today your child is bringing home:

1. Fitness Fun form for Mid-Winter Break
2. A flyer about the Sandburg Skate Party on Feb. 26th
3. Their homework for this week. (including the school-wide Monthly Math Challenge)
4. Their new password and username for World Math Day (students may do this, IXL, or xtra math as math practice this week)

The World Education Games is an annual global online challenge to get all students (4-18 years of age) excited about learning, and to give the top students in all schools an opportunity to see how they measure up against the best in the world. Last year, over 5 million students were a part of what is now the world’s largest online education event.

Split over three days and focussing on mathematics  the World Maths Day is a hugely exciting and engaging way to promote learning and education across the world.

Community Research:  Students have been busy researching their community place!  Several students have already completed and turned in their answered questions.  All surveys must be completed and turned in by Tuesday, Feb. 19th (the day we get back from break).  We will begin working on our projects in class that day.

Please email pictures for this project to your child's email account.

Nature Vision:  We have our 2nd in-school Nature Vision visit the day we arrive back from vacation (Feb. 19th).   It looks to be another fun activity!

 While Mrs. Zuber was in, she read us a book called, "The Rainbow Tiger" and then students were inspired to create other colorful animals with their watercolor paints.
