As Christmas draws near, we continue to be very busy in the classroom!!
We completed Day 3 of Centers this morning. We are wrapping up the stories we are working on before the holiday break. Students will write their Spelling test and TWAS on Monday as tomorrow we are practicing for our concert.

After recess, we took some time to review the Exemplar students worked on with partners.  Everyone did a great job on solving the problem using the multiplicaiton strategies we have learned this year.

Students then enjoyed an hour of Art with Mrs. Schentag.

After lunch, students continued to use base ten blocks to create arrays to solve 2 digit multiplication questions. We also worked on drawing these arrays using grid paper. We will continue with these two strategies tomorrow.

We finished up our day with Phys Ed and a new read aloud book: The Winter Room.

Reminders:
*Spelling test - Monday
*Turkey Luncheon - tomorrow
* Christmas concert - Tuesday
* Early Dismissal (2:00) - Wednesday
* Class party - Wednesday
