Chinese Auction Basket donations are due by Friday, March, 31. Our theme is ‘Rainy Day Fun’. The items can be anything you would do or use on a rainy day indoors. Thank you so much for the donations that have already been sent in.

The new spelling list is in the TAN notebook today. If your child brought it home, please review it for the test on Friday.

On Thursday, a decodable reader will be sent home. Please read it with your child a few times for fluency. Some students must get this signed and return it to read to me. It is important to practice so that the children do not need to sound out any words. There should not be any hesitation when reading. You may add it to the Reading Log.

Keep reviewing the vocabulary words in the BLUE notebook.

Topic 12 in math is just beginning. It was introduced on Friday. Please review the pages when they come home. You will notice that they use non-standard forms of measurement. Even though we discuss using paper clips and cubes to measure, we will actually use a ruler with inches and centimeters.

Keep working on addition facts. Use the flashcards to gain fluency.

*Wear a Blue Shirt or Autism Awareness Shirt with Jeans or Sweats for $1 on Friday.

Don’t Forget! Your child should be reading all stories to you. This is considered HOMEWORK every single day. After reading the book, add it to the Reading Log. When listening to your child read, remember to use those strategies that we have worked on since the start of the school year. Reading fluency will be graded in the last trimester. Practicing reading stories and books on their level will prepare them for this.

**Review Friday Folder material, sign the page and return on Monday.**

I hope you have a brilliant week!

Monday (4/3) will be Day 8 > Music Class
