I hope you all enjoyed your extended weekend as we celebrate Presidents Day. This week, we will be discussing presidents from the past; as well as, the present.

I want to thank Lori Sizemore and the other moms who helped plan and put on our Valentine Party. The kids had a blast!

This week in the classroom:

Word Work: Students will continue to use nouns, adjectives, and verbs in their writing and adding new ones to their vocabulary. We will also expand our vocabulary by using antonyms (opposites).

Math: As we continue telling time to the hour and 1/2 hour and adding same coins, we will be using patterns to associate with skip counting. Your child is responsible for skip counting by 2’s, 5’s, and 10’s to 100. Practice these at home.

There will be no spelling this week, but we will be writing about multiple topics.

Upcoming dates to remember:

Feb. 28 – Early student release at 11:30

Mar. 8 – First Grade play at 9:00

Mar. 12-16 – Spring Break

Mar. 19 – Student Holiday/Staff Training

Mar. 20 – Spring Pictures

Thank you for all you do!

Mrs. Benson
