We have finished mammals and subtraction! We were also able to finish up Unit 6- Stories Have a Message. This focused on reading independently, writing about the stories we had read, and indicating whether stories are Fiction or Non-Fiction. Busy and quick week, but still finished what we needed to π
Next week we will focus on birds, addition/subtraction mixed together, and starting Unit 7- Holidays and Celebrations!
Reminder that field trip form is due by Thursday, March 3rd.
We have virtual school on Tuesday, March 1st so reading logs will not be due until Wednesday! March reading log is coming home today!
Classroom faces t-shirts were shipped today so I expect them to be delivered by Monday! I should be passing them out to you on Wednesday of next week.
Howe school spirit wear is coming home today for those who ordered.
In folders you will find a note explaining how we will be celebrating March is Reading month. We are doing one school-one book and all reading The Wizard of Oz in school. Your child is expected to read books each night for 20 minutes and color a yellow brick of the “Reading Road to Emerald City” reading log. Things are explained in the letter but please email if you have any questions.
If you know anyone who has a child starting Kindergarten in the Fall we are now accepting applications! Our school fills seats with siblings and by word of mouth! Please mention to anyone who may be interested in joining our school community.
Finally this week we have started a bathroom chart to make students more aware of how many times they are leaving the room during instruction time. Right now we are just tracking and seeing (it is done by class number so no one else really knows) how many times they are leaving the room. After spring break we are going to try and get it down to one in the morning and one in the afternoon so they are prepared for first grade!
Have a great weekend!
