February 8th-11th

This week we will do lots of fun activities to celebrate Valentine’s Day!. Our classroom party will be held on Thursday February 11th. If you would like your child to share Valentines with their classmates, please send them in for ALL classmates by Thursday or before. A class list was sent home last week. If you should need another copy, feel free to send in a small note.


This week, we will be reading the story “Rooster’s Off to See the World” and learning about adventures. We will continue working with the letter Hh and focusing on the sequence of a story. We will be learning 3 new words: are, do, that. Our new amazing words are: journey, world, trip, lonely, horizon, and homesick. 

In Math, we finished up our topic on counting to 100. Our 100th day of school was filled with different activities throughout the day and ended with a snack in the shape of 100! This week will start a new Topic (7) Understanding Addition.  This week we may have an extra sheet of homework coming home for a little extra practice in addition! Students will learn to join two groups and tell how many there are altogether.  They will learn how to use the plus sign and the equal sign and learn about addition sentences.  Please review daily workmats/lessons.
