Week of April 26 - 30, 2010

Welcome to the last week of April! Thanks for bearing with me last week when the internet at school wasn't working, or only for a few seconds at a time. It was very hard to write a blog that way. But everyone got their homework done, so that's great. Thanks to everyone who went to Mass yesterday and participated in the breakfast after. Yum.

We started a new selection this morning called Trapped by the Ice! and it is the last selection in theme 5. We will be focusing on the VCCV pattern, possessive pronouns, text organization, a learning log, and homophones this week. The VCCV pattern is the vowel-consonant-consonant-vowel pattern and it is present in all of our words this week.

The spelling bee for grades 1-4 will be on Tuesday, May 11. We will be studying the 3rd and 4th grade words in school every day up until May 11. Students do not have to participate in the bee, however they do have to study the words with the rest of the class.

We continue in math multiplying money, 2-digit by 1 digit and 3-digit by 1 digit. Practice the multiplication tables with your child so they can complete their problems faster.

Have a good week!
