This week our comprehension skill is retelling a story using a correct sequence of beginning events, middle events, and the ending.

Spelling:  Your child’s list of new words is stapled to this letter.

Math:  Thanks so much for helping your child with his/her nightly home link.  I am pleased with how well the students have gotten in the habit of doing the home link and returning it every day.   This week we will be studying 2-dimensional shapes and 3-dimensional objects.

Bookbags:  Please make sure your child turns in his January bookbag and calendar.

Jump Rope For Heart:  This will be in the morning on February 10.

Valentine Exchange:  On February 14 we will have a Valentine exchange in our classroom.  I am asking that the boys and girls bring in a Valentine for every member of our class.  The Valentinefs may be homemade or purchased.   Here is a list of the children in our class:
