Spelling - We will not have a spelling list this week.

Reading - We continue to work on our winter assessments - STAR math and reading, CBMs, Heggerty, running records, and sight words.  Our word work focus is compound words.  

Phonics - In phonics we continued to work on words with blends.  We also learned about words that have a digraph plus a consonant.  They are called a digraph blend.  Example - lunch (l-u-n-ch).  We have also been introduced to r-controlled vowels - ar, or, er, ir, ur.

Math - In math we are learning about comparing problems.  We are learning how to find out how many more or fewer.  This week we will also take our STAR math assessment on Tuesday.

Science - We made our sundials and we had one sunny day where we were able to go outside and test them.  We also learned about how the amount of daylight changes throughout the year.

Writing - We are finishing up our personal narratives.  We were able to share with our class.  This coming week we will share with our kindergarten friends.

Religion - We finished up "You First" in Friendzy.  In our Promise Books we discussed the sign of the cross, parts of the mass, and our church family.  We continue to work on the virtues and values of magnificence and kindness.
