Language Arts
Over the next couple of weeks we will study
the many ways that people celebrate the
holidays during this time of the year. We will
read many books, poems, and sing songs.
In addition we will do a lot of writing. Our
main focus this week will be learning the
difference between a statement and a
question. We will continue to talk about the
different parts of a letter and continue
writing letters to different people.

words that your child needs to learn how to spell for the
MAP test that we will take in January. Beginning this
week I will be sending home a spelling packet that
includes activities that they should complete by Friday.
Please choose one activity every night. The packet
should be completed by Friday. Be sure to study extra
hard on Thursday night because your child will take a test
on these words on Friday. If you have any questions
about spelling please email me.

Math
We are beginning a long unit on subtraction. We
will begin using manipulatives and move on to the
number line and eventually we will be subtracting
by counting up. Flash cards make great holiday
gifts! After the New Year we will begin mixed
timed tests (addition and subtraction).
