We have been getting ready for our upcoming performance of
“The Weather Show”. The children are
doing a fantastic job learning all of the songs and working on their
lines. We were able to practice on the
stage for the first time on Friday and it went very well. We will not be sending home the songs or
scripts so we don’t spoil the surprise of the show! If your child is worried
about learning their lines, please send me an e-mail and we will find a way to
fit in extra practice time. Everyone is part of the performance and has a song
on stage or lines to read. We will be
keeping costumes and props very simple as we have 75 students in this
performance. We will let you know what
the kids should plan on wearing by the end of this week.
In math, we have completed our units on Time and Measurement
over the past few weeks and are currently working on data and graphing. We are
reading short chapter books and working on reading for meaning. We are writing reviews and have been working
on catchy introductions and conclusions.
We will be starting our butterfly unit this week! This is a very busy and exciting time of year
for all of us. Thank you for helping your child come to school each day
prepared and ready to learn. I appreciate
all that you do to encourage and support them. They are a great group of kids!
