~Next week we will be focusing on the two sounds of digraph th. It makes a voiced (vibrating) sound as in feather and an unvoiced sound as in thimble. This is difficult so going over daily worksheets to review would be helpful! Please continue to practice writing and reviewing sounds with your child at home. For Show and Tell your child can bring something that contains either or both of the digraph th sounds. (Thursday)
~In the upcoming week we will be talking about the environment to prepare for Earth Day. Earth day is a day to remember to take care of our planet by keeping it clean. We will discuss the important rule that tells us to “reduce, reuse, and recycle” and how following this rule can make a difference!
~We will continue in Math with beginning subtraction, identifying and making symmetrical designs, counting pennies to pay for items that together cost less than 30 cents and writing numerals through 30 to label sets.
In reading we will read a book called Messenger, Messenger. This will talk about different kinds of transportation that help people do their jobs.
~DIBELS testing will begin on Tuesday and continue through the week. All students in grades K-6 will be tested for the last time this school year.
~Even though spring has arrived, we do have several weeks of school remaining. Students need to try and stay focused on their schoolwork and to continue to do their best. Let’s try to finish the school year with lots of effort and good behavior!!!
I hope everyone has a restful Easter Break! It will be day 3 when we return on Tuesday!
