January 9, 2017

The students brought home a Read-a-thon sheet in their agendas today. We set a goal of reading 100 minutes this week (20 minutes a day for Monday - Friday). Parents are asked to initial the days after the children have read, to help their children set new goals each week, and to return the completed Read-a-thon sheet to school at the end of the month. Thanks for your support with this!

We are planning a Winterruption Day here in Room Four this Friday. Students are invited to bring something summery to wear, and to bring an object or picture that represents something summery (a beachball? a kite? a tennis racquet?)  We're going to have a Summer Show and Tell with the items they bring; it should help chase away any ugly winter blues, at least for a day!

We're on review mode for Grade Two vocabulary today. The review word of the day is benevolent.

Grade One: the book for today has lots of opportunities to review basic sight words and the "Two vowels go walking" rule again. Enjoy!
