Reading

This week in reading, some of our classmates got to read to us and we loved it! Also, in the morning Mrs. Hooker reads Mr. Popper’s Penguins. We read one chapter a day, sometimes two. We read a passage where a dog got lost, but then the dog found the way home. Some people get to do read to someone.

Things to remember:

-Please send students with winter gear with a bag for carrying.

-Please send a pair of shoes daily.

-Charge devices nightly.

                                                                 Happy New Year!

We have been busy making new year resolutions. Ask your child what their goals are. This week we are beginning our winter NWEA assessments and showing off all that we have learned so far this year. 

Now that the winter weather is here. Please consider sending your child with a reusable shopping bag to store their winter items in. This is the easiest way to carry them and hang them on their hooks. If your child is wearing boots to school, please have them bring shoes with them. They are welcome to keep a pair of shoes in the classroom if you prefer. Thank you so much! 

We made weather protective hats in science.
