Smorstad's Scoop- February 18th

**WEEKLY SCOOP!**

Wow!! This weather has been such a nice break from the cold and snow. We were able to redeem our smart chart of playing on the BIG playground and a few extra minutes of banked free play this week. It was wonderful! We kicked off our geometry unit in math. They have had so much fun manipulating shapes and taking a little brain break from numbers. Next week we will kick off our country study and learn all about Japan! I am excited about all we are learning.
