Parents,
Mark your calendars for December 20th. We will have a Christmas Sing Performance (whole school). Details to come!
A note from Mrs. Liston,
This week the children learned about eating healthy in Science and Social Studies.
In math they practiced adding and subtracting higher numbers and increased their fluency. In Chinese, we finished lesson 8 (What date is it today?). Please continue helping your child practice Chinese at home by using the online program (animation) or flash cards.
The students had a good time making Christmas ornaments on Friday. Thank you to all the parents who were able to help with the activity.
I would also like to thank all the parents who were able to help tutor the children in math and Chinese during the week at the school.
If anyone has any questions or concerns please contact me directly.
Thank you for your support.
