These kids have returned their field trip permission slip and $5: Eva, Collin, Abby, Wyatt, Taylor, Alec, Karmen, and Addalee. I am not allowed to take any child from the school without permission. Please get those in by April 26th. I will make arrangements with 2nd grade classrooms for any kids unable to go with us.
April Book-It lists can still be returned. Our classroom is in need of the following at any time: staplers, treasure chest items (kids' meals toys), wrapped candy for rewards (mini candy bars, mints, kisses, mixed candies). Kids are really struggling with forming their own thoughts to answer text questions. Even when I provide the answer, the kids struggle to write it. Ask your child to explain their thinking or their answers to any question to support thinking on their own. When reading, ask them questions about the text and make them give supporting reasons for their answer. This is very important for every grade. We will be finishing our Math shapes topic next week and testing. Review pages as they come home and be sure to do the homework. There are thinking questions that kids need practice with. Our phonics focus next week will be possessives using an apostrophe. We are using singular and plural possessives. This is tricky!
