Tuesday, February 21

 Hi parents,

We had an awesome day today in spite of (or perhaps because of) the crazy amount of snow we got overnight. The students had an absolute blast building and playing outside. It was warm enough to go out in the morning but sadly not in the afternoon.

The class wrote about their long weekends, and we talked about the phrase "quality over quantity". So today, they were actually given a maximum numbers of sentences to write, rather than a minimum. We talked about how sometimes, a few well thought-out sentences can be more meaningful than pages of basic ones.

We officially discussed and practiced our spelling words for this week, and had an interesting discussion about how when it comes to rhyming words, it's the sound, not the letters, that matter. This week's words should be a good exercise in rhyming.

Tomorrow is our Be Brave Field Trip! Students will be receiving Pink Shirts to wear to the game. It will truly be a sea of pink. Please make sure to pack your child with a snack, lunch, and water bottle. I'm not sure if we are bringing backpacks to the game, but if we do, they should be empty aside from just the essentials.

Have a nice night!

Zac
