“Remember childhood is for learning--and through practice, kids learn skills for the real world. They also develop a solid sense of worth and self-confidence when they don’t have their “super mommy” catering to their every move. Give them some room” (p. 44).

This week: We will retell a book entitled “No Elephants Allowed” and write a journal entry about what we love about Canada. In math, we focus on multiple strands of grade level concepts with a specific learning center focus on subtraction. We have started a new science unit entitled “Hot and Cold Temperatures.” The students have their own copy of this unit on their google drive and can access it from home (via their Wolf Creek email account) if they want to enrich their studies of this topic at home.
There is no library day this week. We continue to practice digital citizenship while on Chromebooks (click, view, search, type—appropriate and expected behavior). Have a great week!
