Week 14 Update

In Language Arts, we reviewed Chapter 11 and began discussing end sounds. I re-read Jump into January and the children were very proud that they remembered some of the new vocabulary from the book! We have been working on beginning sounds since the beginning of the year and the children are very good with them. (Ask them, "How do you say ___ in two parts?") End sounds are more difficult to distinguish but we will practice, practice, practice!

In Math, we began Chapter 5 which is about graphing. We are beginning to work in centers, which allows me to work with children in small groups for math.

In Science, we began our unit Earth unit and discussed how Earth is made up of land, water, and air. We talked about things we find in the water and things we find on land.

*Tuesday will be Parent- Teacher Conferences. There will be no school for the children. Please sign and return the appointment slip as confirmtion so I can arrange for the day. Thank you to those who replied already!

** Monday is the last day to submit the permission slip and fees for the Sitara Theater trip! I would love all the children to attend but permission slips and fees will not be accepted after the due date.

I hope everyone had a great Winter break. Here's to a great second trimester!

Ms. Victoria
