Announcements:  Please make sure to read the post from last week about our class play.  I listed all the play parts and the dates of the Dress Rehearsal and the actual Play performance.  Please start looking into finding a costume for your child.

Thanks for all the parents, grandparents and volunteers that came on Friday to the Planetarium field trip.  We had such a great time.  I will post the field trip pictures in the next few days on the blog.

Reading
Of course, reading is the most important part of our homework! All of us should be reading 20 minutes a night, 5 nights a week. Please print off the Sort and Reading Log to record how many minutes your child read each night. Please sign and return it on Friday.

Thursday-Speed Sort
The students will use this sort to practice the indicated patterns. Quest has asked us to have the students type their spelling word sort each night, but I would like to keep homework quick and simple. Just have your children sort the words. They do not need to type or write the sort.
