READING:

In reading this week, we are working on "qu" and "wh". Please help your child with these very difficult sounds.

MATH:

In math we are working on skip counting. It is important for your child to be able to count by 2's, 5's and 10's. A great way to do this is to have them sort cereal pieces or coins in groups of 2's, 5's and 10's. Then have your child count them aloud!

Supplies Needed:
Now that we are half way through the year, we are getting extremely low on our supplies. The children are having a hard time finding scissors, glue sticks, pencils and crayons. If you would be willing to send in supplies for your child, it would be greatly appreciated!

On Wednesday, January 26th, we will be skiing in gym. Please make sure your child has all warm weather clothes needed to have a good time!

Wednesday night is Culvers Night! Please help support Shirley Hills by having dinner out!
