happy winter break

Thank you for the happy holiday wishes that your kids shared with me today! We all enjoyed a Winter Celebration this afternoon with Kaptain Karaoke in the gym and pizza and games in our classroom.We played Winter Bingo and danced the Macarana, The Hamster Dance and boy did we Move It, Move It and work up a sweat! Read lots together over break (including Cam Jansen!) and relax, relax, relax. I know I will! Enjoy the holidays with your family and friends and we'll see you next year - 2010 is almost here!

lines, shapes, symmetry, oh my!

The past couple weeks we've focused on geometry in Math. We've studied 3-D and 2-D shapes. To further explore 2-D shapes, we worked with tangrams today. We attempted to put all seven pieces back into the square without overlapping. It was a challenge! Puzzle pieces are coming home today. If you'd like another challenge, try more online trangram puzzles over break...check this out!
