Dear Parents,

Week at a Glance

This week we finished our social studies unit on families and places people live. In handwriting we are writing numbers to ten. During religion we are learning about the history of the Israelites in the time of Moses. For memory we practiced the fourth commandment and how God wants us to honor our parents. Our reading lessons are about alliteration with sounds “f”, “g”, and “b” and our informational stories are about traffic signals. In science we are finishing our unit on types of energy and reviewing what we have learned about light, heat, and sound. During language we are working on consonant digraphs as well as singular and plural nouns. This week in math we are finishing our unit on addition strategies and are beginning a new unit on subtracting numbers to 6.
