February 1-5

February is the most compact month of the school year. There are more skills to teach during this month of February, but it’s the shortest month of the year.

Please look for our Valentine letter in your child’s folder today. There will also be a book order and a graded writing with penmanship and writing level on it.

Reading and phonics: We will continue to spiral adjectives, nouns, verbs and will begin compound words.

Math: This week we will focus more on money (coin collections) and time to the hour and half hour. We have worked on these throughout the year, but it is now time to use them in everyday situations and assess.

Spelling: into, has, more, her, two, like, him, see, time, could

Please study, practice. and write these in sentences! It’ll help them learn to apply it in their daily story writing.

Writing: The students will begin writing letters this week to mail in our in-school mail service, WEE Deliver. We are also interactively writing a class penguin story and as of today, they have me on the edge of my seat waiting to see what happens next.

Science: We are currently reading, discussing, and analyzing the life of several types of Penguins. We will continue this into this week.

Here are some upcoming dates to remember:

Feb. 8-Student Holiday

February 12- Valentine Party at 11:15

Feb. 15-Presidents Day School Holiday
