Daily Message: March 13

In language arts we practiced spelling and writing words ending in ING, ANG, ONG, and UNG. These are challenging for some children. Words for review at home include spring, bang, sing, song, sang, hung, long, bring, hang, and kings.

In honor of the lunchtime beach party our poetry this morning was called "Sea Shell". I set out shells that my family has collected over the years and the children drew shells to decorate the poem. The results were beautiful! Ms. Rossbach has certainly done a wonderful job.

We began math class with a sheet to review the addition facts. I'm sending home one addition and two subtraction sheets for review over break. This is not required homework and need not be returned to school. The children also played a game to practice the skill of identifying odd and even numbers. I've included a copy of the game if you would like to play it at home.

In science we took a look at the basic digestive system and it's major parts.  Then we played Food Group Bingo.

The annual beach party is one of the highlights of the year. Once again it's an example of how a very simple idea can create memories. We simply play some beach music, distribute leis and have the children eat lunch on beach towels. Such fun! Enjoy the pictures.
