We will use illustrations and details to
describe characters in stories. We will
continue to retell and ask and answer
questions about stories using key details.

Social Studies
Students will identify rights and
responsibilities they have in their family,
school, and neighborhood. This is a great
time to discuss chores at home!
Science
We will explore living things and
identify the specific features and
behaviors that help them survive. Our
field trip will really help us with this!


The office needs your child’s first AND
last name on any notes/e-mails. This
should also include the parent’s first
AND last name as well. This is especially
helpful when you e-mail to inform us
that your child will be home sick. Thank
you!
Please initial the calendar on the back
of the take-home-folder each evening
and leave the calendar in the back
pocket of the take-home-folder.
The Media Center has an open book
exchange policy. If you would like to
volunteer to help students check out
books, please contact Mrs. Hirschhorn
Our Fan Friday is starting this Friday
so try to have your child wear a sport
shirt on Fridays! Let’s show our spirit
for our favorite teams! Teams can
range from Little League to
professional!
