MATH
February was a tough month! We are not as far along in Module 3 as I had hoped - with vacation and so many delays/snow days. We are continuing to explore shapes, fractions, and time. Before March is over, however, we'll move on to Module 4: Addition and Subtraction within 1000.
Family Math helps you help your child. These are our current topics:
LANGUAGE ARTS (Writing & Spelling)
We continue to work in all 3 major genres of writing: narrative, expository (information), and opinion. One narrative we will write (connected to St. Patrick's Day) will be to tell about "A Time I Was Lucky". Spelling skills next up are VC/CV syllable division and r-controlled vowels. We will also continue work on homophones.
More details found in the family letter below.
SCIENCE/SOCIAL STUDIES
Spring and Women's History Month are on the agenda for March!
"Housekeeping"/Odds and Ends
Home~School Folders should come back and forth between school and home every day. Please review your child's papers and don't let them pile up inside the folder. Often there may be notices from me or the office in there, too, that would be easy to miss!
Please remember to send your child with a water bottle each day! 💦
