Reading ~ This week is a Review week. We will review all our word wall words for the past six weeks along with all of the stories we have read. Students will take a cumulative test of all material they have been exposed to up to this point in the school year.
Language ~ We will review nouns, verbs, adjectives, statements, questions and complete sentences. We will also review our Daily Fix It sentences each morning as part of our DOL.
Math ~ We will continue through Ch.2, Subtraction Concepts. Don’t forget that a review sheet will come home the night before the test and it will also be noted in their homework page located in their take home notebook. Please continue reviewing math facts and doubles. We are beginning to make the connection that addition and subtraction facts are related.

*We are planning to arrive at Dream Field Farms Pumpkin Patch between 9:30-9:45 and leave around 1:00. The cost will be around $20.00. This will include entry to the pumpkin patch, lunch, and the bus. Lunch will be hot dogs, chips, fruit roll up and juice. This is a great fieldtrip to attend with your child because this is the ONLY fieldtrip that will be open to ALL parents. Our remaining scheduled fieldtrips will be limited on who can attend. The cost for parents will be $5 plus lunch if you choose to eat there. Parents will meet us at the pumpkin patch and also pay at the gate when they arrive. Another letter will be sent home with the exact amount for students in the next couple of weeks! So go ahead and mark your calendar. The other two scheduled fieldtrips will be on Jan. 30 and Feb. 21. We will be attending plays!
Thanks so much for all you do for our school! Please contact me with any questions or concerns. We are already learning so much!!!
