I sent the homework folders home, with no NEW homework but please review the sight words until your child knows them.

In Literacy, we continued to talk about retells and the important elements of good writing.Then we wrote another retell. You guys are doing such a great job in your writing. I had many students today use descriptive words in their writing today! Keep up the good work.

In Math, we did a number of addition activities using students in the class. Then we started working with ten frames, as a strategy for addition.
