As the saying goes, “March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb” and March is doing just that!

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!

READING-Week 2 of Unit 7   SEASONS

WRITING-We’ll be writing Questions and Answers.  After writing,  students are taught to reread the sentences and ask themselves, “Does that make sense?”  If not, revise it.  Then edit it for spelling and punctuation.

SPELLING-Sorry about missing last week’s test!  Augh…just cramming in so many extras on Friday lead me to forgetting all about the Spelling test.  We made corn muffins with Mr. Marks ( a dear friend of mine who just retired from teaching last June.  He so enjoys kids so he pops in every now and then.  I never really know when he’s coming but we always have a great time together.)  We did some Math and Science along with the baking.  We had 4 choices of condiments to enjoy with our muffins.  We predicted which topping would be the favorite–butter, honey, maple syrup, or milk.  After eating the muffins, we made a graph of our favorite.  Guess which one was the favorite?  Ask your Kindergartener 🙂

I digressed-sorry.  Spelling words for this week are from the an family.  fan   man   pan   tan
