Happy New Year! I hope 2014 will be a wonderful year for you and your family.
This week we will continue our author study of Jan Brett by reading The Hat and The Mitten. We will compare and contrast these two books as well as with another version of The Mitten. We will begin to study different aspects of the winter season and what adaptations animals make in colder habitats.
In math we will be finishing up our unit after we review measuring and time to the quarter hour. We will also be having a quiz on subtraction up to 10.
Spelling words for this week are: us, bus, cut, but, rug, hug, our, bring, city and giant. Bonus words are: mitten, snowflake and penguin.
