3/3

 Hello!

Few quick things:

Book Fair will be March 14-17 at school! I will sign up a time for our class to visit and shop. IF you plan on sending your student with money please fill out this FORM !

Be sure to read through all the March homework! There is the Planet Project listed on the homework and has a flyer attached right after the month overview. Please do not wait till the last minute on this project. It covers a lot of information and students will want to create something amazing. Each project needs a visual model, listed on the flyer it says students can paint, draw, or print a picture of their planet. I have also seen students make 3D models as well. I would love for students to label their model as well. I look forward to see all the projects!

Important Dates: 

*Be sure to check out The Lead, sent from Jenna Reeves, to get school wide details and events!

March 10th: Half Day

March 14-17: Book Fair

March 20-24: Spring break, NO SCHOOL

March 31st: March homework and project due!

Academics:

Phonics: We will learn about diphthongs oi and oy. Both say the same sound but are used in different places within a word. Oi comes in the middle of a word, like join. Oy comes at the end of a word, like toy.

Comprehension: We wrapped our unit about characters and will now be going back to nonfiction. We will be looking at cause and effects within nonfiction text. 

Writing: We are circling back around to opinion pieces. We want students to strengthen their reasoning within their opinion writing. 

Math: We will being administering our numeracy test check ups. This is a check to see where students are in meeting the first grade standards.

Science: We will continue to explore our solar system and looking at what kind of technology we have sent into space. This is my personal favorite! We will be learning about and discussing the Mars rovers!
