The countdown is on! Only three more weeks until Christmas Break!   This week we are working on the letters Uu and Vv.  Uu is a vowel and makes two sounds.  It can be found in words like you, cute, quiet, quail, up, and under.  We saw a video of a real umbrella bird today. It was really neat! We made our own umbrella birds and practiced printing the letter.    Vv is  a fun sound to make. Try it and see what happens with your mouth!  Vincent vampire bat can be found in the words, very, vampire, vest and valentine.  We are going to read a book about bats tomorrow.   Our sight word this week is: here! Practice spelling and printing it.   We are going to start Math centers this week with Mrs. Walls' class. Yay!   On Wednesday and Friday, our Grade 3 Readng Buddies will be down to help us write Christmas stories.   We will be making some fun Christmas crafts and learning some songs and poems these next few weeks.   Our class pizza party will be held on Friday.  There will be a note going home tomorrow.

Wow!   This week we are working on the letters Ss and Tt.  Sammy snake likes to slither.  Show your parents the action for this letter.  Ss can be found in words like snake, silly, Sawyer, Matheson, Allison, yes, snow and Santa! What does your mouth feel like when you make the s sound? Try it! It's fun!
