Hi Everyone!

Happy Valentine’s Day! I hope you had a great weekend! Please make sure you are dressed for the weather. We will be going out to play at recess if the weather is good. Remember your hats, snow pants and mittens.

Phys. Ed

• Our Phys. Ed days this week are Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday.

Library

• Our library day is on Thursday. Make sure you bring your book back so you  can sign out another book.

Homework/Reading

• The homework for the week is listed in the orange homework books.
• This is a review week for our spelling words. They are words we already had. Go over them each night and practice spelling them. We will have our test on Friday.
• The word work activity focuses on the long /ee/, long /a/ and /ar/ vowel sounds. Look at the picture, say the word. Listen for the vowel sound. Spell the word and put in the vowel sound you hear. Pick 2 words and write a sentence for each one. Make sure your sentences begin and end properly.
• We have been working on reading comprehension and using pictures to help with reading and writing. Use the picture to answer the questions. Look carefully at the picture and decide if the answer is yes or no.
• In Math we are working on adding and subtracting and using fact families. Write the fact family for each group of stars.
• We have started using the calendar to do some problem solving. We are working on the days of the week, so there is an activity on this.
• Choose one book from the reading bag to read each night. Use your strategies to help with the reading and record your book on the log sheet.
