Today we began our math unit on probability. We will learn to use mathematical language in informal discussions to describe probability (e.g., chance, never, sometimes, always). Tomorrow, your child will bring home a paper telling you of a fun - and totally optional - way to support this unit at home. No need to send it back to me, just have fun at home. Board games are another fun way to reinforce probabliliy, and card games.
Many of the students are sick right now. Thank you for keeping your ill child at home. I know that can be inconvient but the germs going around are strong enough to knock out half the class so they are easily transfered from student to student. We try to reinfoprce prpopr hygene like washing hands and hand santizer is available, although I never encourage it as it is no substituate for a good hand washing. As long as the temperature is aboput -27 (wind chill taken into consideration), the children will be going outside. Fresh air is a great way to blow away the germs.
Have a good day,
Miss Mynes
