Continue with daily Home Reading Program<br />
Writing: We will be finishing up our persuasive writing pieces <strong>and</strong><br />
writing narrative stories.<br />

as learn about time to the hour <strong>and</strong> half hour <strong>and</strong> probability.<br />

Home Practice Activities<br />
Read daily! How do the pictures help you underst<strong>and</strong> what you are<br />
reading? Try sounding out the words, letters <strong>and</strong> sounds that you<br />
know.<br />
Practice asking questions. When reading, have your child wonder<br />
about something they have read<br />
Review counting money up to 20 cents using pennies, nickels <strong>and</strong><br />
dimes.<br />
What living things do you have around your home? What would<br />
happen if those things were no longer alive?<br />
Important info:<br />
With the weather changing, it is very important that students<br />
have a pair of indoor shoes that are kept at school. They can also<br />
use these shoes for Gym. It is also important that each student<br />
has a change of clothes in case it is needed. Please label these<br />
clothes.<br />
Our room can be very warm. Please ensure your child is dressed<br />
appropriately <strong>and</strong> has a water bottle to keep hydrated.<br />
Thank you for all your support!——Mrs. Gerosa<br />
