Newsletter for the Week of March 18, 2013

Dear Family,
Please remember to send in 5 candy-filled Easter eggs to your child’s classroom soon.  The teachers are trying to determine if we have enough for Friday’s egg hunt. 
Phonics/ Spelling
This week we are practicing color words.  All students will have the same spelling lesson this week.  This lesson is appropriate considering it is time to get our Easter eggs ready!
Math
In math we will continue to practice our new math facts ‘sums of ten.’  We will also practice drawing congruent shapes (same size same shape), drawing line segments and measuring to the nearest inch, counting nickels, and finally counting nickels and pennies together. 
Science/ Social Studies
We are continuing our study of where we live.  We will be using the book Me on the Map to springboard many of our activities, including literature maps, geography maps, and a student book.  It is a little difficult for the students to try to comprehend the “big picture” of where we are in this great big world!
Dates to Remember:
Mother/Son Dance – This Thursday from 6:00 to 7:30
Vacation next week – March 25 through April 1 (Monday)
