We try to go outside for recess as much as possible in the winter months. Students will go out if the "feel like" temp is 20 degrees or higher. Please send your student will appropriate warm clothing for recess. (It is helpful if you put your child's name in their coats as many times they show up in the lost and found)

• Spring brings new opportunities to practice math at home! If you are planting a garden, flowers or working on a landscape, get the kids involved helping with the math! They can count seeds, find perimeter and area of a garden or flower bed, estimate the cost of flowers or plants, and even graph the heights of plants as they start to grow! Enjoy the sunshine (and math) together!
