Week of January 27

January is almost over already! I hope everyone is enjoying our wonderful "Winter" weather in San Diego. My husband and I hiked Lake Murray on Saturday and Cowles Mountain on Sunday. We are so lucky to live in such a beautiful area! 

 

Even though the sun is out, remember it is still cold and flu season.

There have been several cases of strep throat, H1N1, and the stomach flu on our campus. Room 17 is still healthy so thank you to our thoughtful parents who keep their sick students home to prevent spreading illness. Thank you also to all of you who generously provided our class with Lysol wipes and disinfectant. You're the best!

 

Here is a peek inside our classroom...

A friend of mine gifted our class with a cute little dining table and chairs for ELD time and an area for students who need a little more assistance to work. On fun Fridays the group with the most weekly table points gets to eat lunch with me in class.

 

 

In math we are converting improper fractions to mixed numbers.



 Students continue to move up in their reading levels, which is awesome! Keep up the good work!

Scholastic book orders are due on Friday, January 31st. Several students have already turned in their order form and money.  Thank you for getting your orders in on time!

We are almost half way through the school year. Here's a nice little reminder message about what is important:

 

I am so grateful for my nice students :)  Let's make it a great week!
