February 25- March 8

Dental Health
     Over the next two weeks, we will be focusing on dental health.  Your child will be reading books to learn about dental health as well as see demonstrations how to properly brush and floss their teeth. At home this week, please have a conversation with your child about the importance of brushing their teeth and help them with flossing after daily brushing.

Math News
    Thank you to all of the parents who have sent cool whip containers to school with your child, this is greatly appreciated. However, we are still in need of additional containers. If you have any extra containers, please send them to school with your child. This would be a huge help to our learning of factors of 5 and above.
    Pleas continue to practice math facts with your child at home. Your child brought home a sheet of math flash cards which consists of addition and subtraction equations. Please cut apart the cards and use them to practice with your child. If your child is having difficulty with the flash cards, use various objects around the house to help your child visualize the math equations which they are attempting to solve. Some ideas for objects you can use are; goldfish crackers, cotton balls, m&m's, beans, Legos, or any small object.

Outdoor Recess
    The weather is still cold and snow is still on the ground. Please make sure that you are sending proper snow attire to school with your child so they can enjoy their outdoor recess!

Have a wonderful two weeks!
