Happy Friday!
New homework was sent home today along with an orange take-home folder FILLED with a ton of stuff- please look through it!
Also, I noticed a handful of students had not completed all THREE spelling activities in their homework that was turned in. On the spelling "menu" the directions ask that your child chooses 3 activities so please be sure that all 3 are completed and that you have included them in the binder before they are turned in on Friday. Students are going to start having to flip their cards on Friday is their homework is not complete! yikes!
In class today we started writing an ABC book with words and pictures about insects. We added many words and will be working on these for the next two weeks during writing and science time. When we are finished we will be choosing some of the books to be added to the class library :)
In math we continued to work on mental math strategies. We worked on the 9's facts and talked about how adding nine is just like adding 10-- all we have to do is think one less. We will continue to work on mental math strategies and do more FAST MATH to help us get better at these facts. Have your child do some fast math at home this cold and rainy weekend on the computer (it's on my site under "links for kids")
Reading Groups will be starting on Monday!!
Walk to School Day is Wednesday next week
**THANK YOU to the 3 fabulous parents who were able to come in and help this week! I appreciate your hard work. You make doing FUN activities for learning in the classroom possible :)
