Happy Monday, families!

Tomorrow we are dressing like we're going on a vacation! You could pretend that you're going on a beach vacation or a winter vacation! Please remember that if your child decides to wear shorts for their summer vacation to bring snow pants to stay warm outside!


We started learning about how to add details to our sentences to create SUPER SENTENCES!



We worked on identifying pattern cores, repeating patterns, and translating patterns into letters!


Then we created a pattern for a friend to finish, circle the core, and translate the pattern.


We finished up our work about winter animals! We reviewed animals that are active during winter, migrate, or hibernate. Ask me what animal I wanted to be during winter and why!

Thursday, June 27th  is our school-wide PLAY DAY and EARLY DISMISSAL! As we will be outside, students should dress for the weather, bring a water bottle, and come with sunscreen already applied (teachers cannot help with this task). We will be celebrating Play Day by having Freezies! If you do not want your child to have a school-provided Freezie on this day, please email me as soon as possible and send an alternative treat to school for your child to enjoy. We will be finished school this day at 1:05 p.m. as it is an early dismissal day! Our theme for Play Day this year is... Dress like a SUPERHERO!

We learned about how to put the bigger number first and how to use different strategies to help us solve the questions.
