It was GREAT to see all my friends back at school today! The break was great but I was ready to be back. It sounds like lots of exciting adventures happened over break. The good news is the adventure continues. We have LOTS of cool things happening at Needham this week.
Homeroom: I know several students enjoyed their morning run today in the running club. Today also began Book Fair. Team 33 will get to browse books tomorrow. We also have a scheduled time to purchase on Thursday. If you are sending money in on Thursday for Book Fair, please send it in a sealed envelope with your child's name on it along with the title "Book Fair" - this is so we don't get it confused with lunch money. Students will be responsible for the money and what it is spent on, so please make expectations clear before sending money. If you would prefer to make purchases at the Book Fair with your child, Thursday is a great day for you. Thursday from is our annual Community Leaders are Readers event from 5pm-8. Many leaders from our community will be here to read their favorite stories to us and the Book Fair will be open for purchases. You won't want to miss the fun!
Math Block: Today we reviewed our learning objectives and added a new one: Qualifying and Comparing number sentences. Students did a great job recognizing that they can qualify a number sentence as True or False, and that they can compare number sentences as Greater Than, Less Than, or Equal To. If you would like to engage them in a conversation about their day, ask them to show you a few examples of number sentences that can be qualified as True or False. Encourage them to use comparative signs (>, <, =) in the number sentences.
