Dear Parents,

Week at a Glance
This week in religion we are learning about Jesus’ miracles. The class memorized the second article of the Apostles’ Creed which discusses Jesus’ life and work as the Son of God. In math we are learning about picture graphs and tally charts as methods to organize information. During language we are working with opposite words and adding suffixes. For reading we are learning about the long “e” sound and how it can be spelled in several different ways. In social studies we are learning about continents and oceans. During science we are learning about patterns of day and night.
