It's Student Appreciation Week!!!! Monday, you will have an extra long recess and it's Day 1 of Survivor. Tuesday is Twin day and Day 2 of Survivor. Find a few people to partner with and dress the same! Wednesday is PJ day, Day 3 of Survivor and the 100th Day of School!!!  Thursday is School Spirit Day.  Wear Green and Gold.  There will be no homework this week! If you are doing a 100th Day project, you can bing it in any day this week. I'm excited to see what you've done! Have a super week. The last one before March Break!

This week we will continue to review vowels and their 2 sounds (a, e, i, o, u and sometimes y).  How many words can you think of where the letter a says it's own name? (ex. ape, crate)  Continue reviewing your sight words and remember to read every night! In Math, we are learning about nonstandard units of measurement.  For example, we can measure how long a book is using linking cubes.  Try measuring at home.   The 100th Day of School is coming up! As of today, it will be on Tuesday, February 24th!! We have lots of fun activities planned for the day.  I am excited to see the collections and/or projects that you bring in.  If you need some ideas, there are videos and image galleries for previous years on this page as well as, Mrs. O'Toole's class site. Have a great week!

February homework calendars will go home this week. There are no new sight words for February. Please spend the month reviewing the ones we've learned so far. Practice printing them!  We will be reviewing vowels and their sounds this month. Remember that all vowels make 2 different sounds!  In Math, we are working on 2D and 3D shapes. What shapes can you name? Try and describe them (faces, points, edges). We will start exploring measurement soon. The 100th Day of School will be in February!!!  Wonder Wednesday will be about the five senses. This week, we will work on the sense of touch!  Library is Thursday. Have a great week!
