Here’s a look at what we will be doing this week:
Spelling- The new words that were given last week are: her, fern, girl, sir, stir, bird, fur, hurt, turn, third, begins, eight, learning, years. The children should have written their words and sentences last week. I won’t be giving the test for lesson 22 until this Friday, due to Terra Nova testing.
Phonics- r-controlled vowels: er, ir, ur
Language Arts- pronouns I and Me
Reading: We have been reading Amazing Animals since last week, but we will not have the tests on lesson 22 until this Friday. We will be doing most of the homework pages in class this week so there will be less homework.
Math- Time to the hour and half hour
Science- What makes up Earth?
Social Studies- Test Wednesday on Unit 3- Book was sent home last week. Study the highlighted words.
Weekly Reader- “Make Way for Ducklings”
Religion- Zaccheus; Jesus rides into Jerusalem
1AA News
The 3rd quarter ends this week. Report cards will be available next week. Can you believe it is already the 4th quarter of the school year? We still have lots to learn in first grade. Hopefully spring weather will stay so we can be outside for recess!
Our Easter Breakfast is next Tuesday, April 11th. Please send in your non-perishable items before Friday, and the fresh fruit on Monday.
Please remember to check your child’s homework every evening, making sure it is completed and done correctly, then sign or initial each page, (including the “S” book)! Encourage your child to complete all work in their neatest handwriting.
Book order forms will go home this week. You can order books online at Scholastic.com or send your order form and check to school.
Pizza envelopes should be handed in by Thursday at noon!
Have a great week!
Mrs. Flomer
