March 18th

We have been finishing up a lot of concepts this week, as well as having some St. Patrick’s Day fun. I hope that everyone has a great Spring Break! Enjoy lots of fun together. Homework will be posted on the 27^th for the week that we return to school. If your child brought home unfinished work, you may help them complete it so that they are ready for the concepts that we will cover after the break.

If your child is reading below expected levels for this time of year, I have sent home some of my class books for you to practice each night. Please read a few times throughout the week and then return them once a week for exchange. Thanks again for supporting your child. Also, be sure to practice the sight words under teacher resources. (This can be done even if your child is reading at grade level.)

Some recent topics covered:

Social Studies: Urban and Rural communities

Science: Colour and Winter

Math: Subtraction (will continue after the break as well)

Language Arts: Adding Descriptive Words and Procedural Writing

Health: Community Helpers and when to call 911

Art: Spring Flowers
