Monday

Welcome Back!!!

We are back in the groove from our Spring Break.  You kids were very excited to see each other this morning and share all about their vacation.

Bible:  Read 5A  David Sins.  His coveting (and lust) led him to murder.  God sent a prophet Nathan to help David recognize his sin.  May we confess like David our many sins and know they are forgiven through Christ.   Our MT is 1 Peter 5:8  Be alert and of sober mind... (see homework chart).

Reading:  We started a new Superkids unit today.  Everyone also started a new Reading Log.  Thanks for listening to your reader and signing their log.  New spelling words should be in the money pouch.
Math:  We did miscellaneous work today.  We counted cups of water that fill a pint, quart and gallon.  We also solved some story problems by drawing pictures.  Everyone had a turn to practice facts on the ipad, too.  

Science:  We completed a Weather graph in our yearly journal.  I meant to send home our Weather Journal, but forgot!!!  Sorry.  I will send that home tomorrow.

English:  Our new lesson was about common nouns (dog) and proper nouns (Golly).

Gym:  We started a new unit on throwing and catching.  Music:  Musical practice.

Welcome to Mrs. Melanie Monroe (Phoenix's mom).  She will be our new classroom aid on M/W/F.  It is great to have her among us.  

I sent home a permission slip for our trip to the nursing home next Thursday.

I also sent home the April calendar.  It is blue (on the backside of our morning work).

First grade will sing and play handbells this Friday night for the Fine Arts Fair right at 6:30.  Please come if you are able, but it is not mandatory.  I am hoping I at least get 12 kids since I have 12 handbells.
