Icy Notes


This morning marked the lowest temperature at Shirley Hills this school year. Our weather team of Michael, Abby, and Megan found the overnight low temperature this morning to be 22 degrees. This was cold enough to freeze the water in our test bucket in the Peace Garden for the first time this year. We also marked last Wednesday (10/22) as the first day that jackets were needed for recess. The next markers of the changing seasons we will be checking for are the absence of ants on the blacktop during recess and the loss of all the leaves from the sugar maples.

Tomorrow we will wrap up our short unit on time in math. We will began studying data, tables, and graphs. Be checking here for some excellent website in the next few weeks.

Homework tonight:
Reading- spelling, Think About It?s (due Fri), story pyramid on The Garden of Happiness (due Fri).
Math- finish the back page of 5.3 and the back page of 5.4

Tomorrow we have roller skating in Phy. Ed. The office is calling for students to bring helmets for this activity. Have a great night! Good luck with the rhubarb, Max!
