Today in class we got to spend time with our new insect 'pets'--- caterpillars! The have hatched from their eggs and are now "larva." Soon, they will get into their cocoons and will be called "pupa." The kids can't WAIT for that to happen!
In reading we practiced the strategy of skipping the word and then coming back to it to find its meaning. This is called using "context clues." We called it "skip and go back." Try having your child use this strategy at home rather than telling them the words they are stuck on :)
BOOK EXCHANGE IS TOMORROW!! Send a used book from home if you would like your child to be able to exchange it for a "new" used book to read at home!
