Friday Announcements

Spelling: No spelling test next week
Reading: Students are learning to determine important facts in their stories. They are sharing information in their books that are important, interesting, or surprising to them in their stories. We will continue with this KEY through the month of February.
Please have your child read the story, “At Home Around the World” to you in their blue reading books over the long weekend. Please review the highlighted vocabulary words as well.
Math: Students are learning their math facts. We are continuing to focus on +1, +2, and -1’s and -2’s. We have also been working with money and oh my goodness, we need a refresher. Please continue to count money with your child at home as well. We have a spiral curriculum which means once it’s taught it doesn’t come back again for a long time, so it’s important to keep it ongoing at home. We are doing the same in the classroom as well.
Science: Students are learning about teeth, how to brush, and keep them clean. Doctor Allison Buss will be coming into the classroom to discuss teeth with them again next week.
Social Studies: Students are learning about the presidents of the USA.  We will go more in detail on Abraham Lincoln and George Washington. They will also stop by for a visit next week.
