Dear Parents,
First, a quick reminder that Green-Up day will take place
in Hartland this Saturday, May 5th.
Also, we are anticipating two upcoming field trips:
-Monday, May 7th: Meacham Farm
*If you would like to join, just let me know. We will be
there from 9:45 to 2:00.
*Students should come dressed appropriately
for a farm-no shorts or sandals please.
*If your child is having hot lunch, we will pick up brown
bag lunches from the cafeteria.
-Monday, May 14th: Lebanon Opera House
Reading: We have been practicing phonics within our
reading. This week we have been looking for long a words in our books, and
recognizing the letter combinations that make the long a sound. This is
something you can do at home too.
We are currently reading A Bear Called Paddington
by Michael Bond. We are talking about the geography mentioned in the book (Peru
and London).
Writing: The students recently celebrated their writing by
publishing a chosen piece and sharing it with the class. We are moving on to
non-fiction research papers.
Spelling: Lesson 26, words with
a-e
Math: Students have learned to identify polygons and the
following shapes: sphere, cylinder, rectangular prism, cube, cone and pyramid.
We are also learning about symmetry.
Please continue to practice at home: time (hour, half-hour,
quarter-hour, am vs. pm), money (penny, nickel, dime and quarter), and counting
by 2s, 5s and 10s.
Science/Social Studies: On Monday, our students planted in
pots which they made. Thanks goes to Mrs. Kelly for this opportunity!
Have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Craft
