We had a great week of learning! I think we have hit a nice groove in our routines and hybrid learning. The kids did take their first timed drills; this will be done every week that both Navy and Maroon are in-person. Shout-out to the kids for being such champs during our lockdown drills and fire drill this week! They are also doing a wonderful job self-advocating for help when they need it.

Please remember that morning meeting on Google Meet starts at 8:00am EVERY school day, whether your child is at home or in the classroom.

There are several items that some kids are taking back and forth that should stay at school. We added stickers to the kids' supplies to show them what goes back and forth from home and school to help with this confusion. If an item has this sticker, then it needs to come to school each in-person day:

Week Overview
*Morning Meeting - We shared our numbers and learned about the Beast! The Beast is a way to visualize our strong emotions and learn to tame those feelings. It's okay to feel a strong emotion, but not okay to hurt yourself or others just because you are upset.
*Reading - We identified the main idea and supporting details of a story. We will learn about author's message next week.
*Writing - We learned how to write down tiny topics and wrote out some of these topics.
*Math - We learned about rounding numbers.
*Science/Social Studies - We finished up our habitats unit by learning about pollution and how it affects the environment. We started learning about Native American tribes, starting with the Powhatan and Pueblo tribes.

I'll see all the kiddos ONLINE Monday morning!
Enjoy the weekend,
