Hello Parents,
PTA is still looking for volunteers to help with their Holiday Family Night. They are also in need of volunteers to bake sugar cookies. To sign up as a volunteer head to their volunteer site... thttp://bitterrootpta.weebly.com/volunteers.html.
This week our reading comprehension lessons will focus on identifying the problem and solution in a book. We will also review identifying the characters and setting.
We have some interesting books to read in reading groups this week. We are learning about how matter can change. Our book topics include: water, geysers and different solids that can change form.
We will be finishing up our "How-to" writing unit this week.
Our spelling focus is short e. We will have a spelling test on Friday. I was very impressed by last week's spelling test scores. Those were some hard words and the kiddos did very well with them. Also, I have noticed great improvements in handwriting!
We will continue to review in math. Next week we will start some of our 2nd quarter math assessments.
We will also be doing some fun Christmas projects! I love this time of year!
I'm sure you have heard, but Santa sent us an elf! We named him Snowflake. He seems to be a bit mischievous. So far, he has gotten hung out on Mickey Mouse's nose, dumped our rock bucket over, and sat on top of our projector!
Have a great week!
