READING: We will be stretching this reading unit over two weeks. There will be no new spelling words or sight words for the week of April 18th. We are doing this because of the testing that first graders will be participating in over the next two weeks. It is Spring and therefore it is time for the NWEA test again. This is the skills assessment the students take on the computers (in both reading and math).
Our scheduled time for reading is Wednesday, April 13th.
Our scheduled time for math is Tuesday, April 19th.

Scores for the assessments will be mailed home later in the year. This assessment allows us to see if each student is making adequate progress and it shows where he/she is performing compared to peers.

We are working on consonants /s/c, /j/g, and -dge.
(s, -ss, ce, ci-, j, -ge, gi-, -dge)
We will continue to write and read poems for National Poetry Month.

MATH: In math we are learning about money. The next two chapters focus on identifying pennies, nickels and dimes. We will be learning the value of pennies, nickels and dimes, counting groups of money to find a value and using different coin combinations to equal same amounts.

I hope to see everyone at the carnival on Saturday, April 16th!
