On Monday, we participated in another wonderful yoga lesson with Amy. It was fun trying out different animal poses. Thanks Amy!
On Tuesday, Karin took a few minutes away from the office to join students for lunch in our classroom to share information about Aruba. She showed us some interesting things from her vacation, such as shells, photos, sea glass, and money. We learned that some coins in Aruba are square shaped!
During literacy and writing times, we have been reading our new fiction chapter books, learning new spelling rules, and starting our work with opinion writing. This new writing unit will connect closely with our reading work, as we will be sharing our opinions about characters and other aspects of various books.
Three important forms are coming home today. The first is a sign up form for the conference day on Friday, April 4th. Please indicate your first three choices on the form and return it to school as soon as possible. I will send home conference confirmation sheets the following week. Let me know if that day doesn't work for you or if you need me to coordinate with your other children's teachers.
The second form is a permission slip for a visit to the EMES construction site. Our class would love to take a tour to see what it looks like inside the site. We have heard from other classes that it is very exciting and we would like to earn a tour for our next classroom celebration. Please help us by returning the form as soon as you can. Once all forms are returned, we can visit the site.
The third form is the lunch sign up form. Thank you to everyone for remembering to return these sheets on time.
Homework packets are due on Thursday, April 3rd. If your child finishes early, please remind him or her to keep reading throughout the month and to write down the extra reading on the reading log.
Enjoy your weekend! Hopefully, we can start getting some warmer spring weather soon!
