I hope everyone has enjoyed their week.
This week we did a lot of writing! We wrote letters to kids in Dominica, and our favorite Disney characters. We also wrote thank you cards to missionaries that we know, and we are finishing up our How-to books which we will be celebrating next week.







Kids have been working really hard on their addition and subtraction fluency. You probably see a lot of papers coming home for that because we do one every day. Again students stick with one number until they can pass it with at least 5/6 correct. We will continue to do this up until Spring break, where hopefully by then everyone will have mastered their fluency! To help your child ask them simple addition or subtraction questions in the car or whenever you have time to give them more practice!

Notes:
·       Next week is the OMSI field trip; please make sure to turn in the field trip slip ASAP!
·       If you have time and would like to come to our writer’s celebration we will be having it on Tuesday around 2:00. If you can’t make it, we have one for each unit. It is really fun to see all their writing and hard work, they are very proud of it!
·       Registration for next year has started if you have not yet had a chance to enroll or speak to Mrs. Warner.
·       On April 18th, we are having an adults Watercolor and Italian soda bar painting class, held by Mrs. Kim Tener. I am very excited about it! She is an amazing artist. It will be are ally fun night to paint and enjoy some adult time! The class is $40 and last about 2.5 hours. There is a limit of 20 so sign up quickly! I hope to see some parents there!


·       Registration for our summer camp has also started! They are having an under the water theme. It is a fun, interactive and an educational camp, I recommend.

Math
In math, we are beginning a new unit on Measuring length, height, weight, and capacity. This is the fun math for students because it is more hands on for them.

Bible
Next week we are beginning our story of Easter. We will be learning about Easter by using resurrection eggs. Each day, for 12 days, we will open one egg to help us learn the story of Easter. It will be fun=)

Writing
As I mentioned, we are finishing up our unit on How-to books next week. Our next unit is Writing For A Reason. Students will be learning how to be persuasive and use their opinions by writing stories, making posters, or writing letters.

I hope everyone enjoys their weekend!

Mrs. Lee
