Hi Everyone, I hope you had a fun weekend and were able to get outside and enjoy the weather. It is hard to believe that we have started the month of June! Phys. Ed. Our Phys. Ed days this week are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Library Our library day is Wednesday. This will be our last library day and all books are due back at this time. Math We are learning about 2D and 3D shapes and collecting data. So far we have made concrete graphs and pictographs. Students should keep working on their facts and strategies. Homework/Borrow-A-Book The homework for the week is listed in the yellow folders. Our spelling words this week focus on /ow/ words and school words. Please make sure you are reading each night and record your book on the log sheet. Timeline Project The Memo and poster for the timeline projects went home on Thursday, May 28th. The projects are due back on Friday June 5th. If you have them done before please bring them in. We have been learning about how people, plants and animals grow. The timeline will show the students how they have changed and grown over time. Class Project With Texas We had our final meeting with our friends in Ms. Sands class on Friday and it was their last day of school. We got their letters and the book they made us, If You Give A Horse A Hotdog. We loved the book! It was a wonderful project and the students learned lots of new things and had fun doing different activities. We were a little sad to say good-bye, but hopefully the students will be able to keep in touch with their pen pal by writing to each other over the summer. CaterpillarsThe students are enjoying watching and observing the caterpillars and learning about the life cycle of a butterfly. We have 23 caterpillars in their chrysalis stage and there are still 2 that are caterpillars. One is still very small. We are hoping to see some butterflies this week! Have a great week!
