Week of March 24-28

 Next week we will be finishing the letter Ww and its sound as in wagon and watermelon.  Review identifying and writing letters learned.  Also practice blending letters in three, four, and five letter words.   Our next letter will be Qq which is also our last alphabet letter!

In reading our story will be If you could go to Antarctica.   This is an informational text. (non-fiction)  We will learn to categorize and classify.

 In math we will finish composing the teens using ten frames, review and take a test.  We will also begin the next chapter about decomposing the numbers 11-19.  The focus of our current chapter was to show the children how to divide the teen numbers into tens and ones.  The focus of the next chapter will show the children different ways to make the numbers 11-19. 

Please remember that we will have graduation pictures on Thursday- April 3^rd.  Please let me know if you will not be purchasing a package of pictures.  All children will have their pictures taken for a group composite picture.  We ask that you have your child wear a white collared shirt for these pictures.  The children will be wearing caps and gowns for their pictures and the white collared shirt looks best underneath the gown.  All that shows is the collar!  We also ask that the girls wear their hair down and not in a high pony tail or have any large hair accessories or the cap will not fit properly! 

We will be testing for our next report card already!  These will go home on Friday- April 4^th
