Important Dates:
Thursday, March 1- Parent/Teacher Conferences 4:00-8:00pm. It was so wonderful to talk with all the parents that came in for conferences last night! We still need to talk with a few families about the great progress we are seeing. Please remember to let us know when you can meet. We are available anytime between 3:30 and 4:30 next Wednesday, March 13th. If that does not work for your schedule please contact us via email and we will find a time that works for everyone!
Book in a Bag - Students have been reading every night! Thank you parents for supporting this important activity! Remember to talk about the story, characters, and what the big ideas are in the story. You can read alternate pages with your child, echo read (you read a page and they echo read it to you), read to a brother or sister...... Share the love of reading!!!
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 - March 11-15: Mya is in charge of snacks.

Spelling - Thank you so much for working with your child in learning how to read and spell their spelling words and sight words. It truly makes a difference in how well they do in reading and writing their words. Your child needs to read and spell these words each day just like the books in a bag.

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. This wee the students enjoyed a video about the International Space Station. Ask your child about it!
Math - We are began 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.
