Room 4

 
Dear Parents,

This was a very exciting week with our Spring Fling, learning about fingerprints, and finally eating s'mores today!

Here are a few questions you can ask your child this weekend:

1. What are some math stations you did this week? (math journals, math books, sorting, How Many Together Make 10?, geoboards, linker cubes, etc...)
2. What are you working on in Writing Workshop? (finger spaces, spelling, adding details, 3-part stories about the same thing, etc...)
3. What did you learn about fingerprints?
4. What did you do in on the iPad?
5. Are you practicing holding the pencil properly? How do you do it?
6. Let's practice your sight words.
7. When do you use a capital letter? How about a period?
8. What did you like about the Spring Fling?
9. You can also have them retell stories to you after you read one together. Tell me about the story. Who are the characters? What happened? Then what happened? How did the character feel?
10. What is a s'more? Did you like it?

Here are some dates and reminders:

Please water the plants that were brought home tonight. They were getting pretty dry today. The pots and seeds can be planted in the ground altogether since the pots are compostable. There are between 1 and 3 kinds of seeds in your child's pot. They may need to be divided if they are big enough.

May 23	Safety Day. A letter went home in the Friday Folder. Please have your child wear comfortable shoes and clothes for climbing around.

May 25  is our last Library Check-out Day. Please return all library books by this date.

May 29 is Memorial Day. This is a school holiday.

May 28 to June 4 are the last Stay Days; please return all books that have been sent home for Stay Day - except photocopied books, of course.

June 14 Ice Cream Social Party in class

June 15 Last Day of School/Field Day; Report Cards go home

Have a great weekend!
