The Week of Feb. 6 - Feb. 10

In Math this week we are continuing more and fewer. Please continue to work with your child on this concept by making two groups of objects and comparing them. If you have a deck of cards at home, ask your child to teach you the "more than" game.

In Science, we are learning about objects in the sky. We will be making telescopes on Friday so please send in any paper towel or toilet paper rolls you have laying around the house.

In Reading we are learning about the -ay word family. Our new word wall words are her, his, play and day.

In Writing, we are writing our own non-fiction books about a subject of the student's choice.
We are still focusing on using the correct punctuation, spaces and capital/lower case letters. Please have your child practice writing complete sentences at home.

In Social Studies, we are learning about patriotic holidays and the history behind Valentine's Day.

Have a great week!

Homework:
Please keep reading and have your child (not you) write the book title in their homework folder.

Important Events:
Feb. 8- Early Dismissal/Parent Conferences


Other Information: 

Valentine's Party: Our party will be on Tuesday, February 14th. A note about it is going home in Tuesday Folders as well as a class list for Valentines. Please have your student write his or her classmates names on the Valentines themselves. It's good writing practice :)
