Ms. Lindon just provided a great web site for spelling: spellingcity.com
It's a great way to study and play with the words. The site helps your child study the words, and comes up with games for the words!

Please think about our auction project and think of things that will enhance our overall theme. We have great parents already working on it - it's going to be great!!

Please continue to practice math facts. We need to be adding and subtractingto 20 comfortably by the end of the year. We will continue to have "doubles" quizzes on Friday's. Using doubles is one of the strategies that helps with knowing our math facts.

Please have your child orally read their core books and First and Second Readers to you. This really helps improve fluency. They have come a long way and like showing you how well they read! Also, make sure you include these times in their Reading Logs!

Please make sure to sign Reading Folders and Homework notebooks, students will lose 5 minutes if their folders and notebooks are not signed.

Have a Great Week!
