**WEEKLY SCOOP!**
This week we started our animal unit. We held some great class discussions comparing and contrasting the animal groups. Next week we move to talking about their homes and animal needs. We also will start our money unit in math. This is a great time to have your child practice counting change.
Remember our schedule change for next week. We have specials first thing in the morning and the rest of the day is long. We have some fun things planned but continue to prepare your child for the changes!
