 This week your child will be reviewing all the Word Walls with various chants and activities. The spelling challenge will be on Friday, April 6^th.

 The six new words that we will be introducing this week are:

well

large

must

big

even

Remember that this coming Friday, children should bring to school their rhyming booklet. They will be reading these books to each other, as well to students from lower grades. I can´t wait to see their creations!

This week we are going to start a new chapter. We will be working on Two-Digit Addition and Subtraction

We will continue our unit on Fairy tales.  This unit is also tied to writing. For the following two weeks, children will work in groups and will write their own versions of well-known fairy tales. They will have the chance to write the script, create the setting and props, and to act out their creations. You will be invited to come and see their performances. I will let you know the time and the date.
