Happy Friday, 3H! :) We will be back together on Monday morning! Yippee!! :) It's much warmer this morning, so your homework today will be to get outside for at least 30 minutes. An hour (60 minutes) would be even better! :)

I won't assign any new work but feel free to finish up something in your packet. As always DreamBox, Boom Cards and Teacher Page Links are there for you.

Have a great weekend! Enjoy tomorrow's snowstorm!

I'll see you at 1:00 on Teams and IN PERSON on Monday!

Love, Ms.Hackett

February is the shortest month - only 28 days. We will begin to notice our days getting longer - the sun will shine after supper! Looking forward to it! Have a great day, 3H.
