In other areas of our curriculum, we keep plugging along with our non-fiction reading unit and our persuasive essay writing unit. We are studying the Divided Kingdom of Israel and some of the first kings of the split of Israel and Judah. We are enjoying our economics unit, especially how it connects to so many components of real life - our market economy, price, competition, incentives, imports and exports, and so much more. And our next math unit is focused on story problems with different operations. Next month our Bible memory will be Psalm 121.
Wacky Wednesdays - February brings with it Wacky Wednesdays! Be sure to note the following on your calendar:

VALENTINES - We will be holding a valentine's exchange in celebration of Valentine's Day in mid-February, so if you're at the store you may wish to pick those up. Please be sure your child has a valentine for each of their classmates. Also, please have them write their classmates name on the valentine for each person. Our list of students came home on Friday.
From Ms. Raak: Families, please be sure your child has PE shoes on gym days. Boots are not as speedy and kids can't jump as high as they like when they're weighted down with big winter boots (it also creates quite a mess on the floor 😜)
From the office: Speaking of clothing....pants! We need pants! Our students have been in need of dry pants at various points throughout the day. We love to take them into our supply room for a nice, dry pants choice! Mrs. Chase, Mrs. Pereira and Mrs. Rynsburger have emptied out their stash of clothing from home. If you happen to have any old children's pants that still have life in them, we'd be so appreciative to take them off your hands! They'll be put to great use in our supply room!
