March 18th

Welcome Back!
I hope everyone had a restful and fun Spring Break.  My daughter's wedding was the highlight of my break.  Cherish every moment with your little ones.  They grow up so fast!

This week we are back on track with our vocabulary words.  They are: diagram, frustrate, frustrating, graduate, prank, primary, risk, risky, stress, urge, vacant
We will test on these words Friday, March 29th.
We will have a spelling test this Friday as well as a math test.  Spelling homework this week is a little different.  Your child needs to "Get to 50" by selecting items from the list I sent home to help them learn the spelling words.  The assignment should not be turned in until Friday.  The Friday reading sheet is also due that day.

We began a new class novel today called The Whipping Boy.  It involves much vocabulary that requires the children to use context clues to determine the meaning of the word.  I am going over each chapter with them and discussing the book along the way.  Please be sure to ask your child about this class novel.

This week we are celebrating Reading Week.  On Tuesday we will Drop Everything and Read in the morning.  If the weather permits, we will go outside with our blankets/towels and enjoy this special time outside.  Thursday we have a guest author visiting, and Friday is Oldie Goldie!  Fun!

Wishing you all a wonderful week!
