Welcome back!

Winter break is coming to an end - I am sure you've enjoyed the extra time with your amazing children. I know I've loved being home with my kiddos. But, we are about to get back into the swing of things, which is fun too!

Here's what is coming:

Reading:
We are starting non-fiction. To start, your child will not be completing Edmodo assignments. We will be completing other assignments using our Scholastic News weekly readers.

Spelling/LG:
Your child will receive new spelling on Monday. They'll take notes on new LG the following Monday.

Writing:
We are starting informational writing. Our first topic is extreme weather.

Grammar:
We'll be learning about those pesky apostrophes.

Projects:
We will learn about Earth's systems and their connection with weather.

Misc:
*We are in the third quarter! Check your email for the reminder about socks, pizza and other miscellaneous items - sent by Oasis Information.
*Check out the picture tab for some adorable Christmas / Secret Santa pictures!
