Good Morning Room 4!

Good  morning Room 4! This snow is beautiful, but I am ready for spring! On Friday, we said goodbye to our amazing student teacher, Miss Adamson. She will be moving down the hall to the Literacy Lab to complete the reading portion of her program. We sure will miss her in room 4!

I hope that everyone had a chance to look over their child's report card. I am so excited about the progress we are making in Room 4! I am so sorry about the math grades, I will send home updated math grades today.  Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

This week we are beginning a unit on space. We will integrate literacy, science and writing for this unit. If you have space books at home, we would love to borrow them for a couple of weeks.  During our literacy block we will be spending some time working on fluency, the smoothness and flow of our reading. We are going to do being a lot of poetry reading, reader's theater, listening to reading,  and sing a-longs. We will use many of the strategies studied by Dr. Tim Rasinski.

Our math unit this week will focus on fractions.  Fractions are fun to incorporate at home by allowing your child to help in the kitchen.

Thank you all for your continued support. I can't believe we are in our final quarter of 1st grade. Time flies when you are having fun! :)
