Read-a-Thon & Other Happenings

We made it to another month! Woohoo! Our awesome class read nearly 4,000 combined minutes during the Read-a-Thon. That is such a tremendous number. Did the kids tell you what the "mystery" book was? It was "Detective LaRue," which was a book we read earlier this year while we investigated reading. How awesome are we ; )

Some updates:

1.) With the warmer weather fast approaching, please pack appropriate gear. We'll stay out of puddles as much as we can!
2.) Spelling words are on the right hand side.
3.) Math homework will be a greater than, less than worksheet.
4.) My sister, Miss Dorris, will be volunteering in our room 3 days a week helping some of the kiddos on "ketchup," work. Just another great way to differentiate learning!!
5.) Behavior is continuing to improve! Way to go parents!
6.) We will be celebrating Dr. Seuss' birthday with many fun activities, an all school drop everything and read time in the hallway, and a spirit day.  

7.) In math, we are working on greater than, less than, and equal.  We also started adding 1 more, 1 less, 10 more and 10 less to any number less than 100.  In reading, we are focusing on fluency and being able to read sight words without sounding them out.  

Have a great week!
