We are beginning a new story this week, “Pig in a Wig”, so there will be a new spelling list tonight and a new H.F.W. list. The text book will not come home again until next Tuesday. This week we build background information and work on phonics skills.

We are beginning Unit 2 in math which is working on addition sums to 10. This works nicely with our Spring Math Program (strictly math fact fluency). On Thursday last week the class met the goal in adding to sums of six so, this week we will begin timed tests with sums to 12. Use the worksheets that come home as practice. We are practicing daily with flashcards, and practicing at home is a great way to improve your child’s math fluency.
