Good Friday!

My apologies for not posting this yesterday. I have updated the Spelling list with the current one.

Please have your child read the story, "Little Bear's Friend to you sometime over the weekend.

Our math test will be on doubles which is 2+2, 3+3, 4+4, etc. The test will be on Thursday.

Our spelling test will be on Thursday as usual.

Have a great Easter Weekend! I will be sending out a calendar next week of all the fun things that will be taking place in 1Wi as we wind down the end of the year. How did time go by so fast?!

Have a great weekend. If you have questions, please don't hesistate to e-mail.
