SUPERKIDS: This week our class has started "More Adventures of the SUPERKIDS". This is the fourth level of the program. We are learning about the sounds that "Y" can make when it is at the end of a word, the sound of "AY", new memory words, practicing reading fluency, and sequencing events. We also are practicing dictation when we review memory words and recent spelling patterns. The children really are focusing on sounds, word placement, capitals, and punctuation.
This weeks spelling words: down, many, too, first, work...BONUS: daffodils
Math- In math we have been learning about fractions and their parts, pairs, reviewing counting change, and telling time. Our next group of math facts will review sums of ten with missing addends.
Science- We are reviewing the the water cycle and learning all about weather! Our first weather reporter will make her report on Friday Morning. Your children brought home a blue packet with information about the Weather Reporter Project. They are all so very excited about wearing our weather apron and using the microphone for the big broadcast! Please be sure to note your child's assigned day to be the weather reporter at some point this month or next month.
Religion- Our class has learned a great deal about Holy Week and Lent. We are currently sharing Easter stories and we are making paintings of the Risen Jesus this week. They are working hard to show this important part of the liturgical year.
Social Studies- This week we will be reviewing many types of maps and changes in a community over time.
PLEASE NOTE:
1. The children need to bring water bottles to school each day. The sure love to run around on the playground at recess time!
2. Please be certain to mark the inside tags of sweatshirts and sweaters with your child's name. It can be hard to read names that have faded from being washed.
3. Please be sure that your child has a morning snack every day. My Busy Bees need to keep their energy up throughout the day!
