Hello! Thanks for all the kind e-mails yesterday wishing me well. I am still not at 100%, but I know with much rest over the weekend I will be ready to rock and roll next week. Students took the MAP testing this week. They handled it very well. Please don’t forget to take a look at the MAY calendar I sent home regarding all the fun activities each day. Here’s a breakdown for May 1-4.

SPRING MAP TESTING IS NEXT WEEK: WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY:

Spelling: Spelling list is in their folder. Please see their pretest as well.
Reading: Students are learning to Summarize. Students are using the prompt somebody, wanted, but so to summarize their stories. They are doing VERY well.

Please have your child read the story, "The Story of a Blue Bird" to you in their blue reading books
Math: Students are learning their math facts. We will test again on doubles. Feel free to use their test as steady guide. Chances are they will see those problems again. We are also studying 2D and 3D shapes. Next we will work on time and money.
Science: Students are learning the properties of mather: solid, liquid, gas. We will do a couple science experiements with this next week.  Please don't forget to work on those Earth Day projects. This will be our last project of the year. I can't wait to see what they come up with.
