Our day started out with our normal routine, and we started a new chapter book.  The girl in the book (Rilla) is worried about the big fitness competition thats coming up, or the bike part anyway!  Do you remember why?  In math we reviewed and introduced a new strategy called "Regrouping".  This is going to be like all our math, hard at first, then easy once we practice a bit!  We did Fast ForWord after recess, and played outside today (unless you were in choir).  After lunch we played scooter floor hockey in gym and had You and Your World with Mr. Lange.  In Art we finally got to decorate our book boxes!  Remember Interim reports go home tomorrow!  Get lots of rest, and I'll see you in the morning.
