No more reading logs. Author’s tea tomorrow at 11:30.

Today was the last day of character ed. Mrs. Maines taught us the lesson of confidence and then we reviewed all of our character traits. This morning we did a review math test. We went to recess early because we were really good for Mrs. Fischer on Monday.

Today we worked on identifying coins and their values. For lunch we went to recess early and ate hot dogs on the playground. We also got to play longer….it was fun! Since it is Friday we went to PE and got to play free play. Also, in math we started a unit over shapes.
