 Hola hola Mariposas!

This morning we had our usual morning meeting. We were shocked to see that it would be 20 degrees on jueves el 13 de octubre! In Spanish we finished our libritos. In math we practiced counting by 2, up to 20 and learned how to count by 5 to 50. We also made a tally mark chart about nos colores favoritos. 

We learnd 2 new letters and sounds today: N and Ng. We went outside for recess then Srta Houde read us a book about all kinds of trees through the seasons.

We had an alright day - Srta Houde had to give us many reminders about Respect and what that looks like in school, he classroom, and with Each other. We will talk about it with you at home.
