Week of May 6th

We are officially in the month of May and entering the 3rd to the last week of school! This year has gone by so fast and I am so excited about the growth these kids have made. I have loved being their teacher and watching them grow and learn!

Spelling Words:
We have a new list of spelling words this week. The first five are a review of kindergarten words we have already learned, the second five are new first grade words! This will be the last week of spelling for the year.
Our words this week are:

  1. like
  2. have
  3. some
  4. come
  5. make
  6. one
  7. words
  8. your
  9. said
  10. many

Fluency:
We will NOT have anymore fluency homework this year!

IRI:
Our IRI will be on Wednesday the 8th. Please make sure your student is going to bed early the next couple of nights so they are well rested for the test. If you would like to send in an extra snack with your student that day please feel free. Please just ensure that it is a healthy protein filled snack that they can eat quickly after P.E. before they take the test. This is the last time they will take the test and these are the scores reported to the state. I am so excited to see how much they have grown!

Math:
We are finishing up our unit on addition and subtraction word problems tomorrow and starting our next unit (Measurement and Data) on Thursday. This will be our last math unit this year :).

Science:
We will be releasing our butterflies soon. Our kids have been working hard on their journals! Hopefully you are enjoying working on their project at home! It's always fun to see them present and feel so proud of what they have learned :). Click the link below to hear a song they have been singing together.
