This week...


Looking at this week…

This week we will continue to read, read, read.  We will finish up with our Leprechaun poem and put that in our poetry journal.  We have reviewed and practiced spelling lots of different short vowel word families.  This week we will review with a mixture of short o and short e words.  This will be our word study.  We will continue to review B, M and E and work on characters and setting when reading.  We have had some great reading this week in reading groups and the students are really working on reading with some expression and focusing on that exclamation mark!  Way to go!

As this marking period winds down, we will spend the week doing a variety of math skills.  We will do some graphing, some addition, telling time and fractions.  I have graded many papers this 9 weeks in math as the math SOLS have been increasingly harder.  Please keep this in mind when report cards are issued. 

On Monday we will have some St. Patrick’s Day fun.  The rest of the week we will continue our focus on Spring weather, even though the temperature may be well below where I’d like it, HA!  We will talk about characteristics of spring and make a spring book.

Upcoming Events:

Spring break begins Friday March 29- April 5, School resumes Monday, April 8.
Family Bingo Night- Friday, March 22
Kindergarten Egg Hunt- Thursday, March 28
End of this 9 weeks- Thursday, March 28

Looking forward to another great week…
Mrs. Beltz
