Hello Families,
Snow motion was a hit this week! A big thank you to Mrs. Cowan for making this important program happen. Students had a terrific week learning about non-fiction texts and building their reading fluency by repeated readings. Students have been doing a great job with their share day! Students are using strong speaker voices and classmates are thinking of thoughtful questions and comments.

First graders took an assessment on combinations of numbers and continued work on adding 3 groups of numbers together and combinations of 10. We will begin a measuring unit next week.
