It was another great day of inline skating - our next and final skating day is on Thursday. Today we did a very complex problem with Mrs. Harms, ask your student to show you their strategies for solving at home: Some octopuses, fish and a few mermaids are in a rock pool. Altogether there are 38 arms, 24 eyes and 8 tails in the pool. How many mermaids are there? In progress: - toy box project (due Friday) - region posters - french Christmas/winter Books  * Please make sure that you are carefully reading and signing all parts of the ski/snowboarding forms before sending them back to the school!  *Report Cards go home next Thursday!
