March 9-13

Hi Everyone,
Last week we started a unit on the Human Body and the students were so interested in knowing how their bodies worked. We learned about our bones, lungs and heart. We will continue our study this week learning all about the skin, germs, and body systems.
We had fun learning about Dr. Seuss and eating our Green Eggs and Ham. It was delicious!
Our story this week was written by Mercer Mayer and is called "There's an Alligator Under My Bed". Spelling words will be emphasizing the long "i" sound:
hide
mine
time
like
five
bike
and our challenge words are:
smile
write
Please help your students study these words each night. The words are getting harder so extra study at night will be a big help for them.
I have scheduled Parent Teacher Conferences starting Tuesday with some of you. Please let me know if you have not received a note concerning this and would like to meet with me.
Don't forget our Music Performance this Friday at 1:30. The children have been working very hard and are excited to perform for you. If you can't make it to the Friday performance, they will be practicing in front of the whole school on Thursday at 9:00 AM.
Thanks for all your support!
Mrs. Hamblin
