The Week of January 3rd

Happy New Year! I'm hoping everyone had a wonderful holiday.

Reminder: We do not have school on January 2nd. We are returning January 3rd.

This week we will be getting back into a normal routine!! Hopefully students have practiced their word wall lists. On Friday we will have a test of all 78 words. Remember these are words that are recognized by sight.

We will continue with our author unit of Jan Brett books. We will also be starting a unit on polar regions. We will be exploring animals that live in these regions.

We are finishing up unit 5 in our math books and will have a unit and mid year assessment within the first two weeks of January.

Our spelling words for the week are: must, cut, rug, bus, but, hug, our, bring, city, giant. Bonus Words are: penguin, scarf and mitten.
