What's New?

Today Opera for the Young came to Longfellow. Students have been learning songs from "The Elixir of Love" in music class so they knew some of the songs from the opera.
We are working in our 2nd reading unit: Shadows. This also ties into our first science unit we'll start soon. If you don't know all your letters yet, keep working at home. We are now putting sounds together with the letters.
In math we've started a new game called "Buzz" to help us with our skip counting. We're pretty good at counting by 10s, but counting by 5s is difficult for many.
Reminder: if you do not come in the building with our class, you are late. Please go around to the front and check in with the office for a tardy slip. The office has been repeatedly reminding teachers to send children around to the front. Thank you for your help with this.
