This week’s highlights
* This week we had a picture of a unicorn, doll underwear and an umbrella in our sharing basket.
* We are learning about different ways to make 10 and how you can write an addition problem either way 4+6 or 6+4 and it is the same amount. We also wrote our problems as 4+6=10=6+4, using the words ”is the same as” in place of the word “equal”.
* We spent time this week observing our worms and isopods. We moved our worm habitats and our snail habitats to our tables.
* We worked really hard on our 1st Grade Readiness Test, copies of the score sheets are in folders today. If you have questions or wish to see your child’s test please let me know. After next week they will be placed in student files in the office.
* Jackie came from the bookmobile and read stories to us and we got to check out books. We also got to meet Justin who will be coming to our school when the bookmobile ends in June.
* We spent the afternoon walking around the track with the rest of the school for the PTSO Walk-a-Thon.
Continue the learning at home
No Story Retell because of Walk-A-Thon and we were celebrating having done a good job on our test by having free choice time.
Coming up next week
* We will be celebrating the 100th day of school on Wednesday and Thursday. Each child needs to bring 100 of something small (buttons, noodles, paperclips, pennies, etc.) to share with the class.
* We have completed our study of the letters of the alphabet. Next week’s sharing topic will be pets, students may bring in photos or drawings of their pet on Monday or Tuesday.
* Adopted goldfish need to be picked up by Friday. Please remember goldfish are not allowed to ride the school bus.
Snack Mon/Wed: Dennis Murray

Things to note
* The weather is warming up please remember to have your daughter wear shorts under her dress or skirt for recess.
* As the year begins to draw to a close I will be sending home different workbooks and things as we use them for the last time. I also have some Weekly Readers that we did not get to that I will be sending home.
