Note to Parents

We will begin working on geometric shapes this week. This is the first time this year we have started to discuss shapes. The students have a lot of background in these from previous grades. I expect most of the students will do great!

NEW CONTEST (This hasn't been widely talked about with other classes, so that is good for room 209):
I have just informed the students of the Reading Counts Quiz Contest they can join when they finish reading a book. Each library book that has a green circle on it has a test they can take at school. If your child is reading a book that is from another library it probably has a test they can take, as well. Mrs. Klugman purchased an iPod Touch to give away at the end of the year to one lucky student. Each time a child reaches their goal they put their name in the drawing. The more names in by one student the better chance they have. Good luck and happy reading!
