We are having Math assessments this week.

 

Your child will bring home an agenda every afternoon.  Be sure to look at it and sign it each evening.  It will contain notes and information about your child's day!

If you would like to send in extra snacks, I would appreciate it.  We would like to have Cheerios! The cafeteria provides either fresh fruit or fresh vegetables on Mondays, Wednedays and Fridays.

Homework has begun.  You have a monthly calendar in your child's notebook.  Please initial each evening.  All homework should be returned on Fridays.

Homework from now on, is to study the 25 words and read.

Friday -Spelling test

Word cards will be coming home each week for your review and practice.  We will add the cards as we introduce the new words.  Please review the words with your child.  In May your student will be assessed on reading, writing and spelling these 25 words.

 Reading/ Language Arts

We are reviewing all of our letters and sounds.  We are working on poetry and farms.

We will review all of our popcorn words this week.

Please be sure to read each evening.  Look for punctuation and ask your child about what he/she knows about reading so far!

Zoo-phonics is a great program and the children love it.  Be sure to ask them all about what they are learning.  We have been learning the signals and sounds for all the animals.
