Can you believe we are already in March?!?! Time is flying by and our students continue to learn!! :) Also, we're doing 3rd Quarter Testing. We're aiming to get it all done by this Friday.
Well it may be the week before Spring Break, but we have a ton of lessons planned and as mentioned above... we really want to finish the 3rd Quarter Testing. :) So please make sure to let us know if your child is going to be absent and we will administer their tests early... if not they will be testing when they return from Spring Break.
So we have a busy week of Resources on Monday and Wednesday! We have two extra P.E. Classes that we won!!! Thanks for all your support parents. You made our win possible.:) Tuesday we have the Book Fair at 9:00 a.m. Wednesday we have Early Release and then on Friday we have PLAY DAY!!! **Snowasis will be selling Shaved Ice during Play Day. If you want your child to purchase one, please send a Ziploc Baggie with their $3.00 inside of it labeled SNOWASIS. Our Fun Friday Activity is Hat Day. We thought the students could wear them outside to Play Day, so please inform your child whether they can or CAN NOT wear the hat outside. :) Thank you!
Jayven is signed up to bring Fun Friday Snacks for the class. :)
MATH
Last week we completed our unit on composing teen numbers with 10 and another number. This week we are beginning are new unit on composing a new number with two numbers. During this unit we will be introducing addition and number bonds. As a class we have been practicing putting numbers together in centers and during lessons to help prepare for addition. We will be focusing more specifically this week on the numbers 5-7 and how we can make number bonds and addition sentences with them. The videos below we will be visiting a lot in class so please check them out.
Like we said above we are nearing the end of Quarter 3 so please continue practicing the expectations for this quarter.

WRITING
We will be completing the Writing Test this week. The students will be writing a sentence explaining whether they liked the Billy Goats or the Troll from this week's Reading Story.
Remember we are not grading the pictures this quarter and this will allow us to translate the students writing since we know what the topic of their sentence is.
SAXON/ READING SKILLS
We are reviewing the letter Xx and then working on letter Ww. (Ww is my favorite letter... I tell the students daily! haha Please make sure your child knows the Ww sound. They occasionally get it confused with the Yy sound.)
Our blend for the week is BR- and the Word Family is - ell. Check out the media for both below! Our Sight Words for the week are: there, where, when & out. Make sure to review the words with your child by using the slideshow below. :)
We are taking a rhyming test on Wednesday so make sure your child is able to produce rhyming pairs!! :)
READING
Our story is the cutest one we've read all year!! It's Three Billy Goats Fluff. It is written by the author Rachel Mortimer. :) We will be discussing our opinions of the characters, so that our writing thoughts are all ready for the Writing Test. And our main goal for reading will be retelling the story with pictures. Instead of our traditional Comprehension Test on the story. I have chosen to focus on just the retelling for this one. So make sure to watch the video book and discuss the story in order with your child.
