Happy March!

March certainly came in like a lamb but quickly turned into a lion.  I guess we are going to still need the snow clothes. ICK!  The kids are ready for the nice weather.  In fact, they ask to take their coats off at recess if it is even remotely nice-like 30 degrees and no wind.  No worries, I don't let them. :)

This week we will continue to compare numbers with <, > and =.  The students have started mentally finding 10 more, 10 less, 1 more and one less of a two-digit number.  We will start finding numbers that are 20-90 more of a two-digit number. Keep practicing Xtramath.

Saturday was Dr. Seuss's birthday. We will be reading his books and celebrating his great work.
 

Do you have a child or know someone who has a child that will be entering kindergarten next year?  If so, please register as soon as possible.  The demographics study done for the district as part of the facility planning process indicates a significant increase in Kindergarten through 3rd grade students coming to Bitterroot in the Fall of 2013. All new registrations with be marked with date and time of registration just in case "first come, first served" becomes part of the classroom placement process.

Have a wonderful week!
