Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a great break, and wonderful holidays.
Did you hear about our class pet? Mealworms! We will be studying the mealworms, and learning about their life cycle. They will soon turn to pupa and then darkling beetles. I"ll post pictures shortly. We will learn about other animal life cycles in science too. And we are starting to research bears in media.
Our winter reading assessment window opened so we will be testing reading levels. Updated results will be included on your child's report card. The marking period ends January 22 and report cards will go out the following week.
This week we are reading the Shoemaker and the Elves and writing about the story.
We are decomposing numbers in math. For example, 1 and 5 is 6, 2 and 4 is 6. This is our first introduction to adding and subtracting.
Once again, thank you again for the wonderful holiday gifts and well wishes for my son. The recovery was tough, a full 10 days and about 5 days before he was eating, but we made it through and he goes back to Indiana this weekend.
Remember, if you can, to send in a class snack to share. We are running low.
Have a great week.
