April is almost over!

Can you believe this is the end of April already?!?!

We had a super Easter week and have so much planned for this coming week! 

Here are some of our friends hunting eggs! You should've seen their faces when I told them they could only take eggs that has their number on them! Everyone really used their synergizung skills calling out to friends when they found eggs with their numbers on them! Good work! 

Upcoming events:

We will have our next field trip on May 8th to Lincoln's birthplace. Permission slips will be going home tomorrow. 

Also, don't forget about our "Egg Drop" activity happening this Friday. See the note below for more information. 

These are the new spelling words for this week! Our test will be in May 2nd! 

In celebration of Earth day we are going to take advantage of the freshly cleaned nature preserve across the street from school, and we will be planting some items in our first grade garden area! What a great week!!!

Egg Drop family project!

This letter went home with your child today. Please help them with this fun project.

Short and Sweet!

Spelling words are the same as last week, test Friday. Don't forget to send in filled eggs for our hunt by Friday! Happy Sunday

More Flat Stanley!!!

More Flat Stanley Friends!!! 

Goodbye Spring Break

I hope everyone has enjoyed their Spring Break! I'm spending this weekend wrapping my mind around going back to school! We have 9 more weeks of hard work before your babies are officially second graders!!! 

This week we will be learning about authors purpose, goods and services, and finishing Unit 8 of our math series on shapes and fractions. 

Here are the new spelling words. Remember we keep the same words for two weeks. The test on these words will be April 18th. They are posted on Spelling City as well. 

Before we left for break students received a Flat Stanley to take along with them. These are the adventures I've received this far... 

Blaire had a tea party, went to the Zoo, and the Newport aquarium! 

AJ took Stanley to the Eleite 8 game to watch UK win, maybe he's a good luck charm? They also went to see Captain America in 3D! 

While we stayed close to home, I did manage to freshen up my flower beds, do a little thrift store "treasure hunting," and get lots of little boy kisses. I hope your break has been fab! 

*If you have Flat Stanley pictures send them in at any time!
