Looking Ahead...


Looking Ahead…

This week we will celebrate Dr. Seuss’s birthday!  What fun!  We are asking the students to participate in various ways throughout the week.  Here is a list of fun ways to celebrate each day:

Monday-  wear your stripes day
Tuesday-  crazy hat day
Wednesday- mix/match day
Thursday- silly sock day
Friday- wear red/black/white day

We will be formally taught the letter I,i.  We will work on spelling words with the short u sound.  We will continue to read, read, read and we will work on making connections from text to text, or book to book.  We will learn a new poem that is part of a Dr. Seuss rhyme and use that to focus on Concept of Word for the next two weeks.

We will work on a variety of concepts in math this week making each day a fun connection to Dr. Seuss.  We will do things like counting to 50, review subtraction, make a graph and interpret the data, and review the concepts of small, smaller, smallest, big, bigger, and biggest. 

We will read lots of Dr. Seuss books and do some fun activities to go with each book.  We will also be visited by the Cat in the Hat himself this week.   Come back soon to look at pictures from this week.

We are still in need of glue sticks!  Thank you to everyone who has contributed extra snacks and hand sanitzer this week. 

Please continue to practice sight words daily and complete homework each night.
Due to weather conditions still being unpredictable, please continue to send in a jacket with your child.

Enjoy the weekend!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Beltz
