Back to work....

I hope everyone had a refreshing Spring Break and enjoyed spending time with family and friends!

This week we have been getting back in to our routines along with starting a few new project.

We will begin our  Home Reading Program this week. Book bags will be sent home on Friday along with instructions on how to participate in the program with your child. If you have any questions in regards to this program please come by the classroom to chat after school.

Lenten Promises
  • Each morning since the beginning of lent, students have been choosing a lenten promise from our special box to perform for the day. As they complete their lenten promise they fill out a leaf with their name and add it to our Lenten Giving Tree bulletin board in the hallway. Ask your child about their Lenten Promise for the day and remind them they can also complete their promise at home if they forgot during the day. If you are visiting the school , please stop by to see our Lenten Giving Tree.

Healthy Bodies
We are finishing off our Healthy Body Unit within the next few weeks. As we finish studying the food groups we will be making a fun nutritious snack to complete the unit. More details to follow.



Sports Club begins this Friday March 28th!

 Things you can do at home with your child:
  • practice writing at home! We are working on writing and sounding out words as well as beginning to write sentences. By helping your child sound out words and practice spelling their sight words, it will help them gain confidence in their writing skills.
  • ask them to write out a shopping list for you
  • participate daily in the home reading program
  • continue to practice sight words
  • if you wish to have extra printing practice for your child please send me an email and I will send home some extra activities
