empathy: standing in another's shoes
“To the world, you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.” – Dr. Seuss

Home Support:
Please continue to work on multiplication facts with your child. If you need ideas of what to do, please let me know! Division and fraction concepts will be much easier to grasp with a solid knowledge of multiplication facts. Every student should be adding a few minutes of fact practice into their routine!
Virtue Focus: Empathy
This week we'll be discussing how empathy looks in relation to our troops and being thankful for the service men and women. You can encourage empathy at home by talking about how we can show kindness and thankfulness to those who've sacrificed the most for our freedoms.
