The book fair has come to a close. Thank you again to everyone who participated in the coin drive for books! I was able to choose several new books to add to our classroom library!! :)
Please note that the field trip date to Lewis University has changed. We are going to the play on Tuesday of next week instead of Wednesday. The children do not need to bring a sack lunch as we will be eating at the school when we return. Everyone is encouraged to wear their class t-shirt or red.
We have DISCOVERY TESTING next week. Our class will be testing reading on Monday and math on Wednesday. Please make sure your child has a good night's sleep, eats a healthy breakfast, and wears comfy clothes. I'm anticipating a lot of growth on this assessment and I can't wait to see how all of the children do.
In language arts, we've been working hard on a poetry unit. The children have been busy reading and writing different types of poetry.
We finished our money unit in math and have moved onto measurement. In this unit, the students will measure and estimate lengths in standard units and tell time to the nearest five minutes.
In science we're continuing to learning about different habitats. Be on the lookout for our final field trip letter and permission slip next week....we're going to Brookfield Zoo! This trip will enhance our habitat unit and will be a lot of fun for the kiddos in May.
We have library and gym on Monday. Please make sure your child comes prepared with books and gym shoes.
