April 17th

On Tuesday Mrs. Crook came to our class for a second visit. This time we read a very good book about how dream catchers can catch all the bad dreams.   We each got to make our own dream catchers!

Just a reminder to all parents that each week we have a new spelling lesson.  We start on Monday, they write their words in their planners and work on the lesson. They continue each day with the quiz on Friday.  We don't have a lot of in class time to complete these so your child may be bringing it home during the week, if you could please check with your child and assist them to complete this they will be more successful on Friday and learn/master that phonics focus each week.  Spelling City a link on the blog is also a great way for them to practice these words.

A huge thank you to the parents who drove and/or volunteered to attend the ACT with us yesterday.  Pinocchio was an excellent play that we all really enjoyed.

We also started to look closely at different wonders this week.  This week we looked several interesting questions.  Why do you sneeze?  Why do rabbits hop?  How does the sun make energy?  

Scholastic book orders were sent home on Thursday and are due next Tuesday, April 22.

Next Friday morning there will be no Family Reading but instead we will be walking to Starbucks to receive our free hot chocolate that we won for our second place finish in Club RED.  We can just use your child's general walking field trip for this outing.  If any parents are able to join us for the walk that would be great!
