Our sight words for the week were: green, yellow, blue

This week at school we:

·       Read Mayday! Mayday! and wrote about different emergency transportation

·       Practiced addition and subtraction word problems

·       Learned how to use a number line when adding and subtracting

·       Practiced our silent reading and reading to the class from our book bins

·       Practiced writing CVC and sight words on whiteboards

·       Reviewed digraphs (th, sh, ch, ck, and wh)

·       Went to a presentation on allergy awarenss

·       Finished making our own paper

·       Got caterpillars as our new class pets!

·       Finished our number of the day packets 

Ask your child what else they learned.  Our sight words next week will be ‘was,’ ‘said,’ ‘by,’ and ‘what.’

The boys and girls have done fantastic with their reading logs so far this month!  The class has read over 550 minutes so far!  Each time a student brings in their reading log I have to make the thermometer larger.  Keep up the awesome work!

Enjoy the vacation!  Don’t forget to read!
