Can you believe we are in the last week of February? Hopefully March will bring some warm weather.
The kids have been reading a ton for the read-a-thon. We are currently in 1st place as of Friday. This year it is a close race and with a little extra reading from everyone we can keep the lead! It is really important that everyone participates. Reading will be this weeks homework. Besides the prizes awarded by the PTA, we will also have some classroom prizes.
We are supposed to have some cold weather later in the week. Please make sure your child is dressed appropriately. Shorts and sweatshirts are not warm enough in this weather!
This week we are learning why we must protect Earth and its natural treasures. We will also be learning a few new comprehension strategies, visualizing and drawing conclusions. The kids will get lots of practice with these new comprehension strategies in reading groups.
In math, we are continuing 10 more and 10 less. We will also learn how to subtract multiples of 10.
In writing, we will be working on stating our opinion with two supporting facts and a closing sentence.
We have a special presentation from the Lions Club on Friday. They will be teaching us about the flag.
