Good afternoon!

We had a great day today!  We started off the day by having our spelling test and working on our spelling books.  The marked spelling tests will be coming home with your child tonight.  We also worked on special sounds and read a story together during language.  In math the children worked on problem solving using coins.  It was a fun way to review what we have learned about counting money to date!  During science today we learned about chameleons.  We learned what they are, how they use their bodies to communicate, and other interesting facts.  Ask your child tonight to tell you what they learned about chameleons!  We also had another full-school rehearsal for our Grandparents' Day concert.  Today we rehearsed with music which really made the play come to life.  They also went to P.E and music classes.

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, re-write incorrect spelling words, math page 172 - 173 and Letter and Sounds page 152 - 153.

Important information:  Tomorrow is a P.D Day and Monday is a holiday.  We will not be back at school until May 24th, 2011.

Scholastic book order forms can be brought in Tuesday as the final day to order if anyone is interested.

Have a great weekend!
