News for April 2, 2008

Language Arts- This week we read Henry and Mudge in the Green Time. The children love the reading about the friendship between Henry and his pet Mudge. They could relate to taking care of a pet. We are continuing to work on the -ed and -ing endings and long vowel a: ai, ay, a-e. After our break we will read Pets. This story will discuss having animals as pets.

Math-We will finish our unit on "Time and the Calendar" tomorrow and we will have our unit 20 Chapter Test by the end of the week. When we return from Spring Break, we will start our chapter on measurement.

Science-We are finishing our unit on "Plants and Their Needs."  We are still observing our seedlings to see how much more they will grow before Spring Break. After our break we'll start our study of animals.

CRCT-We will began practicing with our CRCT paper tests, when we return from Spring Break, to make sure we are comfortable "bubbling in" for the Official CRCT Tests.  We will test on April 23rd, 24th, and 25th for the First Grade CRCT.  Some other grade levels will have more testing after we finish.

Thank you to Ronise Crumbler and Carla Gignilliat for being my Super Parents this week.

I hope all of you have a wonderful Spring Break! Please be safe and I'll see you back on April 14th.
