Happy Monday! Well, here we are with another short week before Spring Break. Here are some pictures from the hot dog lunch. Thank you for participating in this important fundraiser. We have begun another fundraiser in the classroom. The students may bring in loose change to buy purple links. Every link will be added to our Relay for Life paper chain. The chain will be displayed at the event.
In celebration of Dr. Seuss' birthday, we will focus on his characters this week. Your child will pick a story to bring home to write about the character from their book. Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss! I will be sending home books on Monday. Please return them by Thursday.
Reading Week will be celebrated the week of March 18th. We will start it off with Character Dress Up day on Monday March 18th. Please refer to the green sheet sent home.
In Writing Workshop we have learned how to plan out our revisions. We marked our writing with sticky notes and then will go back reread and revise areas that need attention.
We have Field Day on Thursday. I have posted your child's team color and they have been told. Please have your child wear that color shirt on Thursday. They will be given breaks and drinks as well so they will not need a snack sent to school on Thursday. Please make sure they have sunscreen on since we will be outside from 9:30-11:30 as well.
We are still working on the Patriotic symbols and have talked about The Statue of Liberty, Liberty Bell and Mount Rushmore. I am also sending home Unit 6 Math Checking Progress along with Unit 7 Family Letter.
Please continue cleaning out old books and send them in for Oldie Goldie. Have a good week and Happy Spring Break!
