Today we finished up our reading units. We will be journaling next week
to really get our sentence writing skills ready for first grade. We also
practiced telling time and finished up our animal unit. Today was our
last day of reader pals. The kids received a free book today from the
Barnum book drive too!

It's already Tuesday!
Today we worked on sounding out words in our workbooks. Those books will
be coming home today because we have finished! A lot of hard work went
into those and I hope they are excited to show you. If there are any
unfinished pages, they can finish at home. We also practiced patterning
and learned about underwater animals. Have a great day!

more computer times left after today and we also practiced word
families. Your child will bring home a word family activity to try with
you. They did a great job with it!

What a Beautiful Day
Today we worked on sounding out words and identifying coins. We played a
penny flip game and visited the computer lab. Also, we planted grass
seed a few weeks ago and today we took the cups of grass outside and cut
them. They will be coming home today. Tomorrow is our last checkout day
of the year, so please send your child's books. Have a great day!

Happy Friday!
Today we took our spelling test and practiced coins. The kids are doing
great with both! We also discussed plants and what they need to grow.
Our plants in class are growing slowly. We think that the cold might
have something to do with their stunted growth thus far. Have a great
weekend!
