Dear Children and Families,

Happy Chinese New Year, the year of the rooster! Cranston school is celebrating Chinese New Year this Friday January 27. Please wear RED to bring in the new year. Red means good luck. 

Reminders:

HOME READING:  Use your 5 senses to visualize what is happening in the book you read.

-It’s not as cold but very wet!!  Please dress in clothes that can keep me warm and DRY!

-Please return Scholastic book order

Important Words:

POWER WORDS:          because asked into don’t

These are words we are learning to read and spell.

ACADEMIC WORDS:       add  plus  minus  take away                            community, tradition, celebration,

These are words that we are learning to understand the meaning of in math and social studies.

Today:

We read to self, read to someone and listened to reading.

We wrote about our connections and questions and visualized from the story Just One Goal! By Robert Munsch. 

In word work we talked about words that change when they end in a bossy e.

In math we showed what we know about adding and subtracting.  We also played a game called And and Makes.

Ask me about Mission Impossible in gym.

In social studies we tried to follow someone else’s map to find a hidden stuffy.

Tomorrow’s Class Leader: Kaitlyn (remember to bring a stuffy to share!)

  

See you all tomorrow wearing red for our Chinese New Year celebration!

:)  Ms. MacMillan
