Hi parents,
We had a pretty good day today. In the morning, the students finished up their limericks, and then we had a presentation from the student nurses from U of C. They talked to the class about Zones of Regulation self-regulation, and mental wellness. We had snack, went outside for some fresh air and exercise, and came back in to have our first encounter with "long division".
Mr. Ripka is back! The students were excited to learn that he will once again be working in our classroom every day until the end of April. :)
We mostly talked about how long division problems can be written and solved differently than regular short division problems.
The students solved a few simple problems to warm up. We didn't get into the trickier ones yet but will likely start those on Wednesday. We still need to spend more time talking about 'remainders'.
In the afternoon, we had Music, Gym, and Daily LA.
Tomorrow is International Down Syndrome Day, and below you will find some information about the fun way we get to celebrate:
International Down Syndrome Day
Tuesday March 21st is International Down Syndrome Day. Students are invited to wear their funkiest socks out where everyone can see them! On this day we will celebrate and continue to extend our ongoing learning about diversity and inclusion within our classroom, school, and community. We look forward to seeing everyone's funky socks!
