It's a busy week ahead!  Hopefully this one will include some outdoor recess time for kids to get some much needed fresh air. 





Notes:
  • It is supposed to warm up this week so please make sure your child is prepared for outdoor recess!
  • This is the last week if you wanted to donate socks for the Sock It To 'Em campaign.
  • This is the last week for our class change drive if you'd like to contribute to buying a toy(s) for Angel Tree.  I will match donations up to $25.  So for your children have sent in $59.65!  I am overwhelmed with joy and amazement!
  • I'd like to thank Miss Oberg from the University for all of her hard work with our class over the last 5 weeks.  She will be leaving us this week and we wish her all the best as she continues on her journey.


Curriculum:
  • Math: We will finish off our measurement of time unit.  You can help at home by asking your child how long something takes (elapsed time), and helping them know what time it is in 24 hour time.  Continued practice with reading an analog clock would be extremely helpful.
  • L.A.
    • Writing: We continue to do a mish mash of writing.
    • Spelling: Lesson 7 starts today.  Look for the new sort coming home.
  • Science: This week's exploration will look at pulleys and how they work and how we use them in every day life.  Where do you have pulleys in your home?
  • Social: Our bags are packed and we're ready to go.... to the Parkland region!  Ask your child what this beautiful and diverse region is like.
