Last week we finished our mid-year writing samples. It is amazing to see the progress that they've made as writers. We continued working on our forest mural. As we learned about the ways in which animals adapt to the winter weather, we experimented with fat as an insulator, used loupes to take a closer look at wool fibers, and tried to spin yarn with our hands. We began looking in books for information about forest animals, and each student is beginning to choose a forest animal to research. On Thursday we went to Theatre in the Grove to see Charlotte's Web. Hopefully, your child has shared some highlights from this experience. If not, please be sure to ask your child to tell you about it.
This Friday we have an All-School Meeting in the morning, which also meaning it is "Spirit Day." Your child can participate by dressing up like their favorite book character (remember no weapons, masks or scary costumes).

Thank you families!
