Valentine's Day Fun!

Hi Families-

We have had a super week here in Room 17! This week had some fun celebrations, and even a surprise snow day! This week, we had our celebration of friendship and kindness on Valentine's Day. We started our morning off with a delicious pancake breakfast. Another huge THANK YOU to those families who donated supplies or their time, helping our breakfast run smoothly. We then opened up our Valentines as a community. It was so special to see the excitement and gratitude on everyone's faces. Here is a peek at our special day:







We continued our measurement unit this week by looking at the relationship between feet and yards, and then measuring using yard strings. We know that we use inches to measure small things, then feet and yards to measure bigger objects. Here we are even measuring Mr. Coon! In case you were wondering, he's closest to two yards!

We are all very excited to be attending the UVM Women's Basketball Game next Wednesday as a whole RMCS community. This year, the second grade will be staying for the entire duration of the game. We will also be eating our lunches there. Please pack your child with a lunch that day (in a paper bag is even better!), or they can purchase a bagged lunch from school to bring.

Other Things to Ask Your Child About:
- Self-Care and Mint Tea with Farm to School
- Cross Country Skiing
- Capture the Clock
- Pinky and Rex and the School Play
- Writing opinion letters about books

Have a wonderful weekend!
Kelly
