I hope that you all had a fantastic weekend! Last week we had a wonderful visit from the dentist to teach our students about dental health. On Friday we had a Den Rally to learn about Mr. Thiessen's nomination for LCPS Principal of the Year! Congratulations, Mr. Thiessen!
Here's a quick update...
No School Tuesday:
Don't forget there is NO SCHOOL FOR STUDENTS on Tuesday, March 3rd.
Celebrating Dr. Seuss:
Dr. Seuss' birthday is March 2nd. We will celebrate Dr. Seuss with a school-wide spirit week. A flier went home a few weeks ago with the themes for each day. Themes are as follows for each day:
- Monday: Wear many different colors of clothing in honor of My Many Colored Days
- Tuesday: STUDENT HOLIDAY! NO SCHOOL!
- Wednesday: Wear polka dots in honor of Put Me in the Zoo
- Thursday: Wear a crazy hat or crazy hair in honor of The Cat in the Hat
- Friday: Wear your favorite college or vacation shirt in honor of Oh, The Places You'll Go!
Focus Areas for This Week:
- Reading-We will discuss tools readers use to better understand books. We will explore rhyme, practice our triple check (does it make sense, sound right, and look right), and have some fun with Dr. Seuss favorites.
- Writing-We will continue our opinion writing unit. We will also continue using our collections to gain inspiration for our writing.
- Math-We will finish our subtraction unit and begin to learn about fact families using addition and subtraction.
- Social Studies- We will learn more about Dr. Seuss and his life while enjoying some Dr. Seuss themed activities.
Thank you for your continued efforts to support the kids and me! I appreciate working with each of you, and I am continually amazed at the progress the kids are demonstrating. Please reach out with questions, comments, and feedback.
