Happenings Week of Feb. 1 - 5, 2010

This Wednesday we will be celebrating our 100th day of school. Students can dress up as if they were one hundred years old. Use your imagination! We hope to see lots of little "old" people in school on Wednesday. Please also remember to send in 100 objects in a small baggie or container. Some ideas could be small candies, cereal, pretzels, buttons, cotton balls, q-tips, uncooked pasta, etc...
In phonics this week we are learning about letter C and it's sound as in cat, car, cake. Show and tell will be on Friday and will be focusing on letter C. Please help your child find any small object or objects to bring in and show on Friday. We will also have our word list test on Friday. Please also continue to review the list of sight words sent home last month.
In reading, we are going to be continuing discussing the plot of a story. This week our story is called "Farfallina and Marcel". The main characters are a goose and a caterpillar who during their friendship change their appearance as they grow. We will take this opportunity to discuss metamorphosis of a caterpillar into a butterfly.
In math, we will be finishing up chapter 7 on counting by 2's, 5's, and 10's.
Monday will be day 3 of our six day cycle. Our special class will be music.
Have a great week!
