Dear Parents,
We are gearing up for Valentine’s Day. Please remember...
Our Valentine’s Day Recital is this Friday at 3:15 p.m. in Room 2.
Our Valentine’s Day party will be next Tuesday in the afternoon (TBA). Please have your child bring a Valentine for EACH CHILD in class. I can give you a list of names, if need be. Please DO NOT leave anyone out - this is a special time of love and friendship and we want to make sure everyone feels included.
This Week’s Lessons...
In Phonics, this week’s spelling words again focus on “short u” sounds. Please look at the list on the left to see our words.
In Language Arts, we will start reading Fun with Gum from our phonics series to hear more “short u” sounds and to help review our “a” and “i” sounds along with our sight words. By the end of the week, my hope is that each student can read a page or two independently without my help.
In Math, we are finishing Chapter 6: Geometry and Equal Parts. We will be dividing shapes into different parts to see what is equal. Our test on solid and plane shapes and equal parts is on Friday.
In History, we will continue our lessons in “Good Citizenship,” learning about respect and compassion. We will be coloring pictures and writing about each topic. All pictures and writing will be combined into a book for the scholars to take home.
Book Club...
Some nice Valentine's Day Stories:
Some Beginning Reader Books:
Enjoy!
Volunteering...
We now have a calendar hanging on the “NEWS” bulletin board by the front door of our classroom. Please flip through the months and sign up for a few spots. Separate volunteer sign-up forms will go out for holiday parties (as usual, on our clipboard).
As Always...
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns please feel free to email me, stop by the classroom, talk to Ms. Diane, or leave a comment on our blog. Please become a “follower” of our blog and “like” our school’s Facebook page, if you haven’t already done so.
Have a terrific week!
Mrs. Stuhr
