We begin Unit 4 in Reading with a new Reader this week and a main selection called A Froggy Fable. Story vocabulary to learn this week includes: clearing, crashed, perfect, pond, spilling, splashing, traveled. Our phonics and spelling focus is on 2-syllable words with -le ending. We will practice dividing these words into syllables. They are:

ankle

title

apple

cable

purple

able

bugle

bundle

bubble

giggle

sparkle

tickle

you're

only

This week in Math we continue Topic 8 as we work with Time and Money.

We are completing iReady midyear assessments here in school. Once your child has completed theirs for both Math and Reading, they can reengage with the digital lessons that are available at their level again at home and in school when time is available. Remember, the goal is for each student to complete 45 minutes in Reading and Math each week. Thanks for your help in making that happen.

We are completing our Science unit on plants and animals and will likely have a Chapter Test on Friday.

Parents, don't forget about the scheduled Zoom meeting on Monday, 1/25 at 7 p.m. with Dr. Antos regarding the Sacraments of Reconciliation and 1st Eucharist.

Progress Reports will be sent home early in the week. This is just a snapshot of your child's current progress in the middle of the 2nd trimester and not a final grade. Please sign and return to school at your earliest convenience. Thanks!
