What happened to our early spring? I hope you had a great weekend despite the yucky return of the snow! We journaled about our weekend this morning and it sounds like you all had a great time. We started a new story today in our reading book. Your child should be bringing home their orange basal book and reading you The Kite today. We talked about fantasy stories. Ask you child to tell you why this story is fantasy. We also reviewed the long u sound. Quiz your child by asking them to give you five words that have a long u sound in them.

In math today, we learned about telling time to the half hour. Many of our kids were already experts at this! Good job at home! Keep practicing telling time to the half hour. Have your child tell you how they count around the face of a clock. They should be able to tell you that we count by 5's.

We are working on creating expressive and symmetrical clown faces for our art project this week. I can't wait to see how they turn out. Ask your child to tell you what kind of expression they have chosen for their clown face.

Don't forget that this Friday is Movie Night! We will be showing "Tangled". Power Drills are due on Thursday and the last day to take AR tests that count toward the KU award program is this Friday, too! It is looking like a busy week! As always, let me know if you have any questions! Have a wonderful evening.
