What a beautiful weekend we had! I hope you were able to get outside and enjoy it! We are gearing up for a long weekend coming up- hopefully the weather will hold out!

This week we will be focusing on the following content:

Reading: Many changes have been made to our reading conference schedules. Please check with your child's teacher if you have any questions.

Math: Second grade- we are continuing our work on unit 8, Fractions.  Third grade will be starting Unit 7, Multiplication Fact Power and Parentheses in a problem.

Fast: In class we will be teaching lesson 19 , Long i/cy change.  If a word ends in a consonant-y, you change to y to i before you add any suffix, unless the suffix begins with an i. If a word ends in a consonant-y and you wish to make it plural, change to y to i and add -es.  For spelling we will be working on Lesson 20 (long a review), and will be testing on Friday.


Writing: We will be wrapping up our work on Expository writing, and responding to the prompt: "Which is your favorite special (class) and why?"

Social Studies:  "What are the public services in our community?"

Wordly Wise: We are continuing lesson 10, and will be testing by Friday


Pizza Hut Spirit Night- Thursday, Feb. 12. Flyers/vouchers come home Tuesday or Wednesday.
Valentine's parties will be Friday 2/13- check with your child's teacher for times


 There is no school on Monday, Feb. 16 (Presidents' Day) or Tuesday, Feb. 17 (teacher non-contact day) Enjoy your long weekend!


Have a fantastic week!
