Reading and Math
We began reading Unit 5 this week. Unit 5 is about celebrations from simple family ones to major holidays. As mentioned before, please work on the red word cards. We will soon finish the last sounds for jolly phonics. Sound assessments focus on consonant sounds at the beginning and end of words. Students should be moving toward secure understanding of vowel sounds.
We finished our Unit 3 math assessment this week. Unit 4 covers finding 10's in teen numbers, number partners and drawings to represent addition/subtraction situations. Soon we will be doing fluency quick checks on addition/subtraction math facts using numbers no larger than five.

100 Days of School
February 7th is the big day. We will make 100 day snack mix, have a fashion show to model our 100 day shirts and wear special hats. We will do many activities themed around the number 100. If you did not receive the information about making a shirt, please contact me immediately.
Valentine's Day Party
We will be making our valentine card holders at school. Students are asked to please have valentines for each person in class. I will send a list of names home soon to help your child complete his/her valentine cards.
