I don't like the old saying that practice makes perfect. It is more appropriate to say practice makes better. As a class we know one of the best ways to become a good reader is to practice, practice and practice some more. Check out the photos of some good readers practicing to be be better readers.
This is the last week for new alphabet sounds and word wall words. This week we are learning about "Xx" as in "x on the x-ray." The word wall words are say, came, up. For the remaining weeks of school, we will be reviewing all the word wall words and sounds. Don't give up practicing word wall words. You want your child instantly to read the word wall words upon sight! No thinking of the word or trying to sound them out.
In math we are discussing measurement, addition and numbers to 20. Busy times in Room 115.
Our Spring Egg Hunt is this Thursday. Let's hope for beautiful weather. If you contacted me about helping, I will send out an email on Tuesday evening giving you all the details. Remember to send in 17 eggs (labeled 1-17) by Tuesday. NO CHOCOLATES in the eggs please.
Each student should be taking at least one AR test a week.
Field Trip money to the zoo is due Friday.
I will send home information about purchasing the Room 115 scrapbook on Wednesday. I'm offering it at the cost the publisher sells it at. This is NOT a fund-raising activity. I am placing the order for the books on the evening of Monday, May 2. If you need additional time for payment, please contact me.
