Week Of December 2nd 2013

Aloha families!  I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving break and enjoyed some time with friends and family.

This week is a regular week.  We will have homework each night.  In math we are beginning to learn strategies for subtraction regrouping.  Please be patient as your child learns different ways to solve a problem.  I promise we will get to the standard math algorithm, but for now we will continue to explore different ways to solve a problem.  If you have any questions please contact me.

This year for our winter program we will Performing a song called "North Pole Rock and Roll".  Your child will be dressing up in a 50's style outfit.  We are asking all students to wear a plain white T-shirt with blue jeans and tennis shoes.  Also if your child has sunglasses they can bring those in on the day of the performance.  Girls are encouraged to wear their hair in a high ponytail and to wear a nylon scarf around their neck.

I will send home more information in the Wednesday envelope.
