Newsletter for March 4, 2012

Dear Family,
Spelling:
We will be reviewing the red words that we have learned this year. All of these words have to be memorized because they can’t be sounded out.  Tapping the words out on their arm, writing them with colored pencils or crayons, writing them on a surface in shaving cream with their finger are all great ways to practice these words at home.
Math:
Students will learn two-digit addition, how to tell time to the Half Hour, dividing shapes into fourths, and adding 10 to a number.
Social Studies:
Students will be learning the symbols of America this week. We will read about our symbols and talk about the importance of each one. We will focus America’s Flag, The Statue of Liberty, The Bald Eagle, and The Liberty Bell.
Art:
This week we will be doing a directive draw of the Statue of Liberty. We will also be working on a book, America the Beautiful.
Save the date!
We will be going to the Monterey Bay Aquarium for a fieldtrip on April 26. You can go to www.morntereybayaquarium.org/ to see live web cams of the animals.  
 Father-Daughter dance will be Thursday
 * Please send in tissue boxes for our Easter Basket project.
