Do you believe this? Maybe we will finally get through a whole week! I am keeping my fingers crossed.


We started Topic 8 in math. It is Tens and Ones. As usual, please review the pages that come home and correct any errors for homework. Send these back to school if corrections were made. Thank you for your cooperation.


Even though our main focus will not be addition or subtraction in math, we will continue to review our facts. Please keep drilling these!


I am picking up the pace of our language arts lessons. The new story will be introduced and 4 days after we will assess. The majority of the class is doing really well on their phonics and comprehension skills. Thank you for continuing to read and work on these concepts. It is definitely evident.


Look for the new spelling words, review them for the test on Friday if necessary.


Read “The Class Pet” in the reading book on Thursday. Also look over the pages prior to the story. The Phonics skills are on pages 88 and 90. High Frequency words are on page 89.


On Friday we will have our positive behavior reward! It will be GAME DAY. Your child can bring in a game from home. It can be a board game or card game. No electronic games or devices please. This went so well a few months ago that we decided to try it again.


Continue to review all pages in the Friday Folder, sign and return any tests that are stamped. These tests are very important to review and return. Also, sign and date the back page of the Folder.


Please keep reading every day. Reading is a homework assignment that all children should be completing each night. Remember to write the books you read on the Reading Log (in the plastic sleeve). Sign and return the page when complete and another one will be sent home.


I hope you have a great week!

Monday will be Day 4 > Computer Class
