This project will combine all subjects and we are so excited to get started! We will continue to work on 2D shapes, and begin exploring 3D ones this week. This knowledge is helpful for our building unit. Please be safe outside - with the melting and freezing there are some icy spots on sidewalks. Reminders: - Cool Card fundraiser went home on Thursday, and orders are due February 20th - Eco Leaders are snowshoeing Wednesday (please dress for the weather)  - No school next Thursday, Friday or the following Monday (Family Day)
