In writing, we continued to work on persuasive letter writing. We are becoming really good at convincing people to feel the same way we do! We need to continue to make sure we are putting capitals at beginning of sentences, periods after complete thoughts, and checking over our work to make sure words are not missing and the sentence makes sense.
In math, we started working on telling time. So far, we have really focused on the difference between an analog and digital clock. This week, we will go into more depth about telling time to the hour and half hour.
Special guest- On Friday we had a special guest come to our classroom. We had Lieutenant Chris Jackson visit our classroom from the U.S. Navy. He is stationed in Saratoga Springs, New York. He told the class about living on a submarine and told us all about his medals. The kids were great listeners and had some awesome questions to ask Lieutenant Jackson.
Important Information:
- Field Trip Info- Please make sure you are returning the permission slip and the payment of $20.50 as soon as possible. The lunch order form will not be needed for the first field trip since it will be at school, so lunch will only need to be ordered for our 2nd field trip that is in March. We will have lunch as normal for the January trip. Thanks!
- Homework for the week- The only official homework is disguising Tom the Turkey and the story that goes along with him. However, it is a good idea to continue working on word lists, Math Masters, and reading every night, since the quarter ends in 7 school days!
