May 7-11

Here is a peek at what we will be working on this week.

Reading:  Our new vocabulary words for this week are: 

          add                       any                       both                     making               

          peddler                onions                  judge                    prepared            

          stranger               contest                mean                   delicious

Please put this list in a handy spot and have your child practice reading through the words a couple of times each day. 

This week, we will be read and then compare and contrast two versions of the story, “Stone Soup.”

Spelling:  Your child’s new spelling list is attached to this letter.

Bookbags:  Thanks for helping your child retell the stories he/she is reading at home.  I am already noticing nice improvement when we retell stories at school.   

Math:   We continue to count combinations of bills and coins, add and subtract various amounts of money, and make change from $5.00.  This is a good time to get out the money and help your child count change for a few minutes each night.

Mark Your Calendar:

 Fun To Be Fit Day is in the afternoon on Friday, June 1.

 Track and Field Day is Friday, June 8.

Have a great week!
