I hope you all had a nice February vacation! I was at home with something. Not sure what but it involved a continuous throbbing headache that lasted the ENTIRE week that no medicine could touch! :( I think I am finally on the mend. I just wanted to let you know that I told the children that due to the chaos of the week before last, we will just take our regular gumball quiz on Friday for the facts that they were practicing before the storm. I know it's been awhile but this will give them more of a chance to practice.
We will spend this week getting back into the routine, learning new sight words and word sorts, being introduced to nonfiction book clubs (exciting!), working on our All About Books in Writing Workshop, and learning about fact power in Math. We will spend some time on Friday doing Dr. Seuss activities in honor of his birthday on Saturday. If your child has any Dr. Seuss books at home that they could send in for this day, that would be great! Please make sure your child's name is on the book. It will be returned Friday afternoon.
Now for a long awaited challenge!
Please ask your child the following questions if they wish to participate. Email me their answers. 2/3 correct earns a little prize! (Student answers only please!)
1. What was the name of the war that George Washington was a general in?
2. Abraham Lincoln was the ________ president. (number)
3. Abraham Lincoln was born in a _________________.
Thank you!
