SPELLING TEST ON FRIDAY!

We begin spelling words this week.   You can find the words and sentence on the right side of the blog.  Your child will bring their spelling paper home in their Wednesday folder, but 2 nights is not very much time to practice the words.  This week our spelling focus is short a as in alligator.  Please help your kids practice their spelling words throughout the week.  There is a link on my blog called "Spelling City".  It's a great place to practice.

In reading we are still focusing on family and friends.  Our focus question this week is "What do friends share together?"  We will also  continue to work on determining important information and comparing and contrasting.

In math, we will spend the week focusing on ways to make 10.  We have lots of fun activities planned!  There are many kids working on Xtra Math at home and they are making excellent progress on their addition facts.  I have noticed that they also are able to complete in class work more successfully and confidently.

In writing we will continue to work on complete sentences while discussing fragments. We will also work on "Things I Love" page and begin writing sentences.

Have a wonderful week!
