It was great seeing all of you last week for conferences.  I enjoyed the opportunity to share your child's work with you and answer questions about your child's daily life at school.  Please do not hesitate to follow up on our conversations if you have lingering questions.

I can't wait to see you all at the Fun Fair this Saturday!  Be sure to buy those tickets after school tomorrow to save yourself some time in line!  Also-don't forget to send in those quarters from the couch cushions so your child can vote for the Pie in the Face competition!  Finally, it's not too late to contribute to the Dancin' for Desserts!  This is an easy one!  You can buy an item and drop it off!

We had a special visitor on Tuesday!  Mr. Abraham Lincoln came and told us about his life.  He taught us a lot and I think he was impressed by how much we already knew.  Thanks, PTO for funding this great event for all of Kindergarten and First Grade!

Reading:  We are focusing on main idea and details this week. We read a Rosa Parks book and watched a video of this brave woman.  We will continue to work on visualizing while we read.

Math:  During math we are working on writing number sentences and on comparing two numbers.  As you can see from the homework we are also working on writing our numbers.

Science:  We continue to look at water and we will learn how water moves in waves and in plants!
