Mom Turned Upside Down Is Wow!

We had fun last week playing with words and realizing MOM turned upside down is WOW (quite appropriate!).  We have a Mother's Day Secret planned for our moms. Please send $8.00 to cover the cost of this secret.  Pay by check or cash by this Friday.  NOTE: This secret is different than the $5.00 secret we have for that will be unveiled on May 16 at the Room 115 Celebration.  Sorry for any confusion.


Two reading groups had homework this weekend.  Please check binders.
In reading this week, we will be discussing the letter "Qq" as in quail on a quilt.  Word wall words will be:  good, pretty, who, ride.  

Math involves 3D shapes.  We continue to work on adding and subtracting.  In our calendar notebooks, we are graphing each day the daily precipitation status to see if it is true that "April Showers Bring May Flowers." 


We are working hard at being writers.  I tell the children that writing proves you are a thinker because  writing is thoughts put down on paper.  I love the concentration on the thinkers in the above slideshow.  I encourage you to have a personal writing area for your child at home.

There is PTA meeting on Monday at 6:00.  Please plan to attend.  Word is out what great volunteers Room 115 has so please invest in our school.  You can volunteer as  little or as much time as your schedule allows with this great organization that focuses on the needs of the students .

Monday is Italian Ice for $1.00. Please send poetry journals back on Monday and library books.

I will be out of the classroom on Wednesday afternoon, beginning at 11:30.  An excellent sub has been secured for my absence. 

Classroom needs:  Paper towels and wet wipes.  Thanks for supporting our classroom.

Contact me with any questions or concerns you may have.
