It looks like we are in for a clear, but cold week!  Make sure you dress warm everyday.  Our spelling word today was "commotion".  How many syllables does "commotion" have?  Our "First, " story was for "How to Quiet a Classroom".  We doodled an elephant.  In language arts today we read from our Fudge book and talked about Ruby Bridges.  Do you remember who she was?  What was special about her? After recess we had math.  We did a listening quiz, we did flashcard practice (math with a friend), and we did some math sheets for addition and subtraction.  We also worked on a litte review for even and odd numbers.  After lunch we had PE with Mrs. Hache and worked on some basketball skills.  Then we had art with Mrs. Hill where we started work on our polar bear cub with chalk and pastels.  We finished off the day talking about Martin Luther King.  We ran out of time for our book of gratitude and packed up to go home.  Dress warm and get lots of rest and I will see you tomorrow!
