February 23 - 27

This week we are learning the letter W, w as in wagon. Please practice doing blends at home: wa, we, wi, wo, wu. Add consonants to make short words like wet, wag, win, etc. We will finish up with number 20 and we will continue counting to 100! Our unit this week is all about dental health...so be ready for some eager brushers this week :)

Don't forget to check your email!! I sent an email out on Friday with some important dates you will want to write down!

Have a great week!!

February 17 - 20

I hope everyone had a great long weekend!
This week we are going to view some of the letters that have given us trouble. Everyone knows the word sounds, but letter formation and blends are giving some of us trouble, so we are going to really work hard on those this week. We are continuing with our morning sentence and have started short vowel sentences. We are getting really good at them, too! Remember, our sight words are the, a, & is. Practice, practice, practice! We are on the number 20, but, of course, counting way past that! Our unit work this week is about Presidents!
Have a GREAT rest of the week!

February News

We are doing the Pennies for Children for Children's Hospital. A letter was sent home about this last week. All donations collected are due Feb. 12.

There will be booklets sent home last week that are a way we can earn money for our school. It's very simple! You just fill out the booklets and return to school by Feb. 4th. Each completed booklet returned will earn our school $5.50. The booklets will be put in a drawing for a $100,000 playground for the school, $10,000 for the student's family, or $5,000 for the student's classroom.  We appreciate your participation with this!

Friday, Feb. 6th - Teddy Bear Day!! Your child may bring ONE teddy bear-it has to be small enough to fit inside their book bag! This will end our week's unit about bears!


Tuesday, February 10th - Stephen Fite Concert in Montomery. You have already paid for one adult and one child. I will send more info about this soon!!
