Baby, It’s Cold Outside!

With our temperatures dropping pretty low this week, please make sure that your child comes to school with a coat on. We don’t go outside if it “feels like” 35 degrees or below, but when we can go out, we are going! Please just be aware of the weather forecast.

This week in…

Reading: It’s time for the mid-year TPRI (Texas Primary Reading Inventory), so students will be tested to see their improvement in these reading/writing/comprehension skills.

Word Work: We will continue analyzing and sorting nouns and now adding adjectives to describe them. This will be assessed in their writing. We will also begin an author study of Audrey Wood. This author uses adjectives in her writing in creative ways. The class will adapt some of her writings to use their own nouns and adjectives.

Spelling: The students will receive 5 new words this week on Monday, but there will be no test on Friday. It will be next Wednesday, after the holiday.

Math: Measurement will continue, as well as, problem solving with addition and subtraction. Telling time to the hour and half/hour is being introduced and practiced.

Please be aware of some upcoming events:

January 16- School Holiday

January 25-Early Release/Faculty Inservice

February 10-Our class Champs Assembly

Thank you,

Mrs. Benson
