SPELLING March 5 - 8

I am beginning to have two lists for the children.  Please select the appropriate spelling list for your child.  This list should be challenging and not too easy.  Many of the children are ready for harder words so I am offering a more difficult list of words for those students.  If your child is a Spoon, Fork or Plate during our Guided Reading Groups he/she should really select List #2.


List # 1 - when, then, with, but, all, were, what, for
List #2 - shade, crash, might, light, right, drink, shrink, where, think,        change
BONUS:  yesterday, today, tomorrow

THE QUILT IS HERE!!!

Please come by the classroom and take a look at our beautiful quilt.  Our class is very proud of it and we have absolutely no place in the school to hang it safely so I am storing it in our classroom.  Please come by and drool.  It is very special as is your child who made it beautiful!  Thank you and we'll look forward to seeing you at the auction! 

Spelling February 27 - March 1

Our spelling words this week will be:


will, still, hill, went, want, sheep, steep, sleep, coat, float, boat, good


Bonus:  March, seventeen, seven


Don't forget about RAZ-KIDS.com for your child.  Log on with the password:  careyj 


The students reading levels are improving at a rapid rate with this program.  Please make time (20 minutes or so) for your child to read at home every night.  Raz-kids.com makes a difference!!

Dr. Seuss Day

On Wednesday, we will be celebrating Dr. Seuss' Birthday.  Please help us celebrate by sending books written by Dr. Seuss to school with your child.  Make sure his/her name is written on the inside so that we can send them the books home with your child.


Oh, and the most important part of the day is that we will have Dr. Seuss' Birthday be PAJAMA DAY too!  

THINGS WE NEED

We are in need of sandwich sized ziploc baggies.  They don't need to be a fancy brand.  



We also need some Clorox Antibacterial Wipes for wiping down tables, computers etc for our room. 


MANY, MANY THANKS!!!!
