April 4

Happy Monday!  Just reminder that all students at Cranston School will be participating in our Annie musical.  Students who do not have a specific part in the play will still be involved as a member of the choir.  We are performing on Tuesday May 3.  Please plan to have your child available to perform that night.  I have posted on my previous post, information about Annie the link to Mrs. McBride's website.

Gymnastics started today.  We learned all kinds of new body positions.  Some of them included a stork stance, straight stand, straight sit and straddle sit.  

In math we continue to work on 2d and 3d shapes.  We started working on a problem this afternoon which was quite challenging.  Here is the word problem.  I have 3d shapes in my basket.  Altogether they have 8 faces.  Which shapes do I have?  Please post your answers on the blog tonight so we can talk about it tomorrow.  

We had Roots of Empathy this afternoon and we started to make a nursery rhyme book for Nova.  This is perfect timing as we are going to be talking about Fairy Tales in writing starting tomorrow.  

I will be away on Friday as I will be going for Therapeutic Crisis Intervention training.  Mr. S will hold the fort down with a substitute teacher named Mr. Chapman.  

Family Movie Ticket information went home today.  Please return as soon as possible as this event traditionally sells out very quickly.

Have wonderful evening.
