Thank you to our field trip chaperones this week and to everyone who helped out in Room 4. We are looking forward to a fun week of rhyming and Dr. Seuss. Please read on to find out what's happening in our class and at school:
Important Dates
Week of 2/26-3/2: Read Across America Spirit Week. Please see the flyer below for specifics.
In addition to these fun spirit days, I ask kids to bring in books by Dr. Seuss from home during this week. They can begin coming in on February 26th, and I will send them home on 3/2. Please clearly label each book you send in with your child's name.
Wednesday, 3/7: Field trip to Safetyville. Thank you to our five volunteer chaperones, Simon de Vere White, Tammie Balestreri, Jen Dewald, Shelley Eder, and Teresa Woo. The cost for this trip is $3 per student and adult. I sent a permission slip with last week's homework.
Week of 3/12-16: Parent/teacher conferences; minimum days. For these conferences, I do not meet with everyone. If you would like to schedule a conference time, please email me three times that work for you. Please see my availability on last week's homework email. I am happy to meet with anyone to discuss your child's progress and readiness for first grade.
3/26-3/30: SPRING BREAK; NO SCHOOL
Language Arts
This week we will read lots of Dr. Seuss books. The kids will share their opinions of characters and books in their writing. I can tell most kids are spending time reading at home. This time is so important and helps with reading development so much. Please remember to have your child read aloud to someone for at least 10 minutes each day.
Math
On Monday we will take the topic test on decomposing numbers 11-19. Then we will begin a measurement and geometry unit.
