REMINDERs...
The students will not be allowed to hand out Valentines IF they have a toy, pencil or candy attached. If you have already made/bought Valentine cards with a toy/pencil/candy/sticker..., please remove the item and just send in the cards. Our school is following the Calgary Board of Education guidelines and appreciate your attention to this matter. Classrooms will recognize Valentine's Day on February 12th.

• Our next snowshoeing sessions are Feb 10, 11, and 12th. 

Today, we explored various situations involving adding and subtracting numbers. 

Today, we focused on the part-part whole structure to solve problems in groups. We had to determine if we needed to find out what one of the parts was (one of the numbers in the equation), or what the whole was (the answer to the equation). Examples of the problems are as follows...
"There are 9 bananas. There are 11 grapes. How many more grapes?"
"Ken had 19 candies. He ate 5 on Monday. He ate 6 on Tuesday. How many does he have now?
" I had some toys. Mom gave me 3 more toys. Now I have 12 toys. How many toys did I have at first?"

We had another great snowshoeing session!!
