Happy Spring!  I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

Reminders:
Kindergarten orientation is scheduled for April 11th and 12th.  Kindergartners will not have school on those days.

During Reading Workshop we have all been growing as readers!  We use our superpowers to...

• Solve tricky words!
• Find sight words in a snap!
• Make predictions and connections.
• Think about what would make sense.

Sight Words: New sight words were added to each student's sight word ring, and individual lists will be sent home on Tuesday, April 2nd. 

During Writing Workshop...

• We fixed and fancied-up our How To Stories!
• We added detail to our illustrations.
• We made sure our stories made sense.
• We had "free choice" writing and got to choose if we wanted to write a Small Moment story, Pattern Book, or another How To story.

During Math we completed our Cathy Fosnot Unit on Collecting and Organizing.  We took inventory of many items in the classroom and discussed different strategies for counting each item.  We also reviewed making combinations of numbers.  Feel free to have your child inventory items at home!
