THANK YOU to Violet Apone and Jo Mitchell for helping in our classroom

THANK YOU to all the families that have signed up to donated to make our
Cinco de Mayo Party & Animal Breakfast a success!!

Notes
There was a mistake on the Animal Breakfast invitation, costumes for the
Animal Breakfast need to be into school by Wednesday, May 13th. We
want to make sure all students have their costumes before our breakfast

Language Arts
Reading:
This week students will be starting a Poetry unit.

Writing
Students are finishing their animal reports this week.

Word Study
We have completed Word Study for the year. The remainder of the
year will be focusing on reviewing and using the word wall (high
frequency) words when writing. We will also use Word Study time in
class to learn about nouns, verbs, and adjectives. Enjoy the extra time
not studying for spelling tests to be outside with your family!

Math
We are continuing Unit 9 this week. Students are continuing to work on
two digit addition/subtraction problems.

Science/Social Studies
We are continuing to watch our caterpillars grow. We will learn more
about the butterfly life cycle this week.

We did not have a chance to start the mapping last week. THIS WEEK
we will start our final social studies unit on mapping. This week we will
learn about directions (N, S, E, & W)!
