Merry Christmas!

Today in 202 was pretty magical! The kids began their morning by discovering what goodies were in their stockings! Then we had our secret Santa gift exchange! The kids faces were glowing with excitement! After that, they opened gifts from me & then I opened gifts. Thank you for your kindness & thinking of me this Christmas! It means the world to me! 

Don't forget to read for AR & complete your winter break packet!!

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year! 

Love, 
Ms. Lewis

Here are some photos of 202 from today!

Hour of Code

Today we got to dip our feet into the world of Computer Science & participated in the Hour of Code! The website was swamped with kids all around the world coding, so we didn't get the best experience, but we will try through the week. The kids worked through coding tasks for Angry Bird, Plants vs Zombies, Madagascar, Flappy Bird & Frozen. Each task built on the one prior & got a little harder!
