The "break apart and distribute strategy" (also known as the distributive property) is a method for simplifying multiplication by breaking down one or both factors into smaller, more manageable parts, then multiplying each part separately and adding the products. Yup -- I know how to do that!

Restroom renovations are proposed to update plumbing and electrical systems and improve accessibility. Bond funding, with the help of state debt service aid, makes it possible to address these capital improvements in a timely manner. westfieldnjk12.org/vote

We learned a lot about Nowruz, the Persian New Year, which began last Thursday. How fortunate we are to have families from various countries and cultures who are willing to share their traditions with us.

Wait! I have an idea. Did you know that Earle Dickson, who lived close by in New Brunswick, invented the Band-Aid? You can read about it in "The Boo-Boos That Changed the World", or listen to it at http://tiny.cc/l4ae001.

The Third Grade Women’s Tea is the culmination of weeks and weeks of research about a famous woman. Each youngster shares their research, bound in a booklet, with one special guest. They make a unique doll and a timeline of their famous woman's life. These are displayed outside the auditorium for everyone to see and admire. Guests are served a cup of tea by their hosts while everyone enjoys a round of trivia.

Goodbye, Judy Moody. We loved reading about your adventures these past two weeks. We learned about the T.P. club, how new friendships are formed, and that parents make mistakes. We played Kahoot and answered trivia questions from each night's reading. We fed a Venus fly trap and lined our halls with All About Me posters. We read the first and last chapters together in the auditorium and watched video recordings that the teachers made for each chapter. And we got our own copy of Judy Moody. I wonder what book we will read together next year.
