Welcome Back!

We had a great day back from Spring Break today! It was so fun to read about everyone's adventures in their journals today. The kids all looked huge this morning. I can't believe how much they have grown in just 10 days. Aside from several injuries, lost teeth, and some tummy trouble, it seems that somewhere in our 10 day break, fun was had by all!

We were back in action today with our routine. Your first grader is bringing home their spelling pre-test with this week's spelling words. We are focusing on the long O sound. We read a short little story today called, "Hang On, Rose!". Ask your child to give you a little summary of this short realistic-fiction piece.

There is only Power Drill homework this week! No reading homework, yay! Please be sure your child is reading at least 5-10 minutes each night. If your child participates in AR, help them remember to return their books each day in case we find a moment to read together. Also, please be sure you are practicing your child's sight words with them. Even if they have already passed all the lists, it is great practice to review these have-to-know words on occasion. We see them so often in our daily reading! Thanks so much for your support.

Don't forget tomorrow there is a PTO meeting at 7pm and this Friday the 23rd is Movie Night! We will be showing "The Muppets".

Stay dry tonight in this downpour!
