Valentine’s Day Information:

– Students may bring Valentines to pass out to classmates. We have a total of 27 students participating. Remember, students are not allowed to pass out food items as part of their Valentines.
– We will enjoy a small treat and activity as a class on Friday.
Math:
Multiplication Facts:
We are going to be working very diligently at mastering our multiplication facts. Students have been learning to skip count as a strategy to learn our facts. The more they practice at home, the more efficient they become at recalling their facts!
We will spend the next few weeks working on naming fractions, fractions on a number line, comparing fractions, and fractions as a whole. We will be using food during our faction unit. The items that we could be using are: Smarties, plain M&Ms, and Skittles. Click the link below for the Food Permission Form. Fraction Fun Permission Form
Reading:
This week we will be practicing our comprehension strategy of rereading and our skill of Compare and Contrast texts. Our stories are Grey Wolf! Red Fox! and Amazing Wildlife of the Mojave, which are both expository texts.
Phonics:
Plural Words: varient vowel: /ô/
Vocabulary:
-shelter -alert -competition -environment -excellent -prefer -protection -related
In class, we learn about these vocabulary words in connection to ourselves. If you notice your child using any of these words in context, this would be a great opportunity to celebrate their efforts!
Remember to read and to do Reflex math!
