I hope your family had a restful weekend! Our class welcomed another new student last week and it's been wonderful introducing Indy to our Elysian Heights community! With new students entering our classroom, we're reviewing routines and spending our morning meetings discussing relationship building strategies and ways to solve problems we may encounter with others. This ongoing conversation will help us work together as a stronger community where we feel safe sharing those harder moments and we can begin supporting each other in finding solutions to them. Last week, we began our 6-week long gardening class where the children will get to learn about all the plants, vegetables, and herbs we can plant together. Every Monday at 8:45 am we will visit the garden where Ms. Maura will take the students on this fun and exciting journey! Tomorrow marks the start of Black History Month and the Lunar New Year where we'll focus on learning their true history and voices. We'll discuss different artists, scientists, authors, and more to showcase the significant impact their culture has contributed to our society. Our literacy workshop focus for the week will be on rhyming words, stories, and poems to support reading patterns and build vocabulary for our written stories. Math workshop is focusing on subtraction of multi digit numbers in word problems. At home, students can practice grouping tens and ones when using numbers to support place value skills. Important Dates: Monday- Art & Garden Class Tuesday- Dismissal @ 1:28 pm Wednesday- Theater @ 1:30 pm Thursday- Library @ 11 am Friday- Music @ 1:30 pm I've outlined all important new protocols from our Superintendent below: -Students are required to to wear a non-cloth mask, with a nose wire at all times, including while participating in athletic activities. The school will provide masks for any student who may need them. -Close contacts will no longer be sent home and the entire, all students and employees will be considered close contacts and can remain on campus as long as they are not showing symptoms and continue testing negative.
