March 1, 2019
Important Dates:
Thursday, March 1- Parent/Teacher Conferences 4:00-8:00pm.
Book in a Bag - Each night for the month of March your child will bring a book home to enjoy together. It is your child's responsibility to read it to you and bring their book back to school to exchange every day this month. We want to increase the amount of time each child reads as well as encourage reading of a variety of writing styles.
A letter was sent home about Parent Teacher Conferences. We would like to meet with parents on Thursday March 7 from 4-8 as Mrs. Kennedy will not be able to attend conferences on Tuesday March 12. If Thursday does not work for some of you, we will be able to meet on Wednesday March 6 and March 13 anytime between 3:30 to 4:30. Please schedule conferences with Becky.
Thank you so much for understanding.
We have been working on responsibility and what that means. We have encouraged students to be responsible for their take home folders, books, backpacks, anything they can do on their own. They are very proud of becoming more independent and we are so proud of them!
We do go outside for recess if the temperature feels 10 or above. Encourage your child to check their bags each day so they remember to have hats, gloves, snow pants and boots!
Snacks - A snack letter was sent home with your child this week.
March 4-8: Jake is in charge of snacks

Science - We have a class full of scientists! They do a wonderful job making connections to what they learn in science and how this relates to our world.
Math - We are beginning our next unit Addition to 20. We also continue working on counting by 2's, 5's and 10's to 100 and beyond as well as understanding place value.
Social Studies - We are continuing our understanding of working together as a community and our responsibility to our world especially in taking care of our world's natural resources. We have combined our studies in Social Studies with Science as these units coincide. They do a good job understanding cause and effect.
We will continue working on reading skills, adding new sight words, learning new reading strategies, and working on math facts.
Please remember to email both of us if you have any questions or concerns. We plan to check emails daily.
