Happy Early Valentine's Day!


Valentine's Day is just around the corner. If you would like to bring in Valentines, please remember to bring enough for everyone. I do not want anyone to feel left out, so please remember to show love (our virtue of the month) to your classmates by including all of them for Valentines Day.

For math, we have started to study 2 digit addition and subtraction. Try solving these word problems at home for extra practice(remember to start with the ones column):

Sarah and Samantha love to collect silly bands! Sarah has 73 silly bands and Samatha has 45. How many do they have in all?

John and Jacob love playing with Beyblades! John has 14 and Jacob has 20. How many more does John need to have the same number of beyblades as Jacob?

Valerie and Alison love to eat Smarties! Valerie has 20 smarties and Alison has 26. How many do they have all together?

For science, we have continued to look at simple machines. Some of the machines we have studied so far are pulleys, levers, wheel and axle, wedge and inclined plane. Have a look at this link and click on the pictures of different simple machines. You will be able to see where you can find these simple machines in real life! When you're done, try to find similar simple machines at home:

Please remember to bring in your interview forms as well. Parent-Teacher interviews are next week, so please hand them in to me by Wednesday next week.

Have a great weekend!
