Week of January 18th

Hi everyone! I hope everyone has had a great  weekend! I have been thinking about our sweet class today and how much they enjoyed learning about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. ! Make sure to check our their awesome MLK portraits in the hallway and their "I have a dream" writing projects. 

We have a full four day week ahead of us!
* In language arts we will be focusing on r-controlled vowels, contractions, drawing conclusions when we read, writing facts, and writing using am/is/was/were. 
*In math we will be working on counting and place value application, measuring a path, and we will be doing some exploration with base-10 exchanges, lengths, and path measurement. 
*In social studies we will be learning about our seven continents. We will have a continent location quiz on Friday. Please review with your child the location of our seven continents. I will send home a world map on Tuesday .Friday they will be asked to label each continent.  Don't worry about spelling :) 

A few other notes...
1. Don't forget to sign up for the field trip on Feb. 10th
2. Graded papers are going home Tuesday. Please sign and return
3. Keep up the AWESOME work with AR books! EVERYONE took an AR test last week! WOO HOO! Keep it up! 
4. Spirit week is coming up! We will celebrate spirit week the week of Jan. 25th! Each day will be a special dress up day.
