Week of March 19th-23rd

This week in Reading we will begin the story Max Takes the Train. The question we will focus on is: What are different ways of going places? This story is an animal fantasy and we will be focusing on the comprehension skill of realism and fantasy. Our phonics skill is /j/ spelled Jj and /w/ spelled Ww. Our high frequency words are: yellow, blue, and green.

This week in Math we will continue with Topic 8, Understanding Subtraction. In this topic, we will learn about stories about separating, take away and comparing. Additionally, we will learn about using the minus sign, finding differences and subtraction sentences. Please continue practicing counting to 100 by ones, fives, and tens.

Our classroom is in need of some glues sticks. It would be greatly appreciated if each student could bring in a four pack of glue sticks. Thank you in advance for your donation.

Our daily special schedule is: Monday, Day 2: Guidance, Tuesday, Day 3: Gym, Wednesday, Day 4: Music, Thursday, Day 5: Computers, and Friday, Day 6: Art. Please remember if we have a snow day that the next school day will be the next rotation day.

Please be sure to send in any auction basket donations. So far, we do not have anything for our basket. Please refer to the PTO letter about the basket auction that was sent home last week. Our classroom basket theme for the auction is “Summer Time Pool Fun”. We will be accepting donations until April 6th. Some ideas for our basket include: sunscreen, goggles, mask, pool toys, flip-flops, sun hats, visor, Frisbee, balls, rafts, pool noodles, inflatables, towels, and swim bag.

Some dates to look ahead: 3/22-Meet the Spartans at 7pm in HS gym, 3/27-Title 1 Family Fun Night at 6pm at the elementary, 3/29-PBIS Reward, 3/30-No School.

If you ever need to contact me, please call the school at     570-874-3661 ext. 3243 or email at scapone@northschylkill.net.
