We celebrated Earth Day by talking about how to take care of our world. The students had a lot of great ideas and were very knowledgeable. We also watched videos on Brain Pop Jr. about recycling and our planet.
READ, READ, READ!! Now that the weather is nicer and Spring activities have begun please remember to take a quiet 15 minutes before bed and have your child read to you. It is the single most important factor in their reading success.
We have been working on segmenting and blending sounds. Please play follow the path and also make your own boards with new words. The children have also been working on writing word families. These are words that rhyme and also end with the same 2 letters. I will also send home a new sight word list this week so that you can continue practicing.
We are completing a unit on measurement. The children have been measuring the length, weight, capacity and area of certain objects. We have also been comparing the things that we measure. The children are becoming wonderful math mathematicians. They are adding and subtracting!
In science we will finish our unit on habitats and shelters next week.
