*Parent Teacher conferences will be this Thursday March 31, and next Monday April 4.  Please check your time online. 
*This week during our coding lesson we will be getting Loopy! The children will learn that a set of actions can be combined into a loop.  At your conference I will provide more information for you about coding at Mitchell School and how you can access the lessons at home. 
*Next week we will be building structures during our computer time using toothpicks and gumdrops.  Our lesson will focus on persistence and how to try and try again when you are faced with a challenge.  If you would like to donate gum drops to our project please send them in with your student.  Thank you in advance for your support.

*Students have begun using the i-pads in our classroom to do “selfie” video book talks.  They are doing a great job with them.  I look forward to sharing them with you at conferences.
