Hi again!  Your children have done a great job this week.  I have been grading some worksheets.  I do not grade every worksheet they do.  You will know it has been graded and entered on Option C if there is a percentage on it.

We will be going to Hilmar Cheese Company on Wednesday, March 4.  We will be leaving the school around 8:20.  Please remember to send your child's booster seat.  The chaperones/drivers have been notified.  It should be a fun day.  A reminder:  your child does not need money, we are all eating the pizza lunch outside in their picnic area and children are to wear their uniform.

In Language Arts we will be reviewing short vowel sounds, long vowel a and i, sequencing, cause and effect, contractions, compound words, ABC order, s, ed, ing endings and sentence structure.
We will begin Unit 5, Level 1,  in Reading.  This is the last unit.  I will be sending home a reader several days during the week.  Please have your child read the story to you several times.  Ask questions about the story.  Remember to review vocabulary words every night. I do vocabulary words everyday in class.

In Math we will begin our chapter on money.  When a homework worksheet goes home it is very important that your child count out the money.  I need to see how they have counted it out and arrived at their answer.  You can help by having your child count pennies, nickels and dimes.  Do not use quarters with them at this time.

You did a great job of signing the planners.  Starting this week if the planner is not signed your child will sit out his/her recess.  The same goes for readers or homework not returned the following day.

A reminder:  If you arrive at school before 7:50 your child is to go to the auditorium.  You are welcome to stay with them.

Have a wonderful Sunday.  If you have read this blog have your child write the answer to this question in his/her planner:  What month is it?  Thank you and have a great week.
