Highlights
We read the story “One Smile” by Cindy McKinley because it tied in with this month’s virtue of caring.  Students also selected an arctic animal to research.  We are learning how to take jot notes about our animal and organize our information.  In Math, we were challenged to write as many addition and subtraction sentences that make 10.  Here are a few examples, which the students discovered:  2+3+1+4=10;  27-3-4-10=10;  8+8-2-7+3=10;  100-50-30-10=10

Important Information
On February 14, students will be given time to hand out Valentine cards if they wish.  Students do not have to give cards; however, if they choose to do so, we ask that they give one to every student in the class.  A school messenger will be sent out by the weekend with the first names of students in the class.   

Important Dates
The February calendar has been posted on the Panorama Hills school homepage.  Click on “school information” and then “Calendars/Hours”
