Our Week In Review

What a week!  We began with the Measurement Olympics (see the previous post),  celebrated Valentine's Day with Party in a Bag, learned about Fire Safety with the Franklin Firefighters, and ended with a virtual field trip to Washington, D.C. (see our tweets for videos of our experience).  Between these awesome events, a lot of learning was evident in room 24.  The pictures from our week should frame a the story.  Ask your child to fill in the details!

We had our second all school meeting this morning!

The Measurement Olympics

Our Measurement Olympics were a HUGE success today! After our opening ceremonies, we heard the Olympic Theme played on the recorder!  The children skated, shot hockey "pucks", threw discuses and the shot put, and even did the luge ~ all while practicing their measurement skills! Thank you to everyone for helping with organizing colored clothing, making shirts and sending in shoe boxes!  We are also thankful (and very lucky) to have such wonderful specialist teachers at JFK. Thank you to Mrs. MacMurray, Ms. Doherty, and Mr. Banks for helping with today!  Ask your child about all of the mathematics that happened today! Here are a few pictures from  our day!
