Pie/Pi Day


We had a great time making our pies Friday. We made a choice of three different flavors; apple, cherry or chocolate. The kids made all of it and had a yummy treat. We also investigated circles. We learned about diameter, radius, circumference and a bit about Pi and how it helps.

We have been so busy with our Mayan projects. We have about 25 kids making huipils that look awesome. We also have kids playing pokatok. They are doing great, and very relieved that anyone who loses does not have to experience the Mayan consequence.

Thank you to all the parents who have been helping. Without your help don't now how we would have been able to get it accomplished.

Remember that we will have a project fair for our Mayan unit on this Friday, March 20. It will be from 10:30 to 12:00.
Hope to see you there!

Remember that there is no school from the 23rd of march to April 3rd for spring break. Enjoy!

Thanks to everyone who has come to their conference so far. They have been great and I really appreciate that we get time to meet. We have some nice plans and goals for the rest of the year for the children. I look forward to meeting with the rest of you soon!
