Parent Information:
What are we learning this week?
Math: Addition and Subtraction
Strategies will be the focus this week.
Reading/Writing: Students should
bring home their guided reading
baggie and sight word baggie each
night for practice and they need to
bring them back to school each day.
We will continue focusing on
nonfiction or expository books and
writing about our research.
IB/Social Studies/Science: We will be
learning about animals for the
remainder of the school year. This
week, students will be researching an
animal with a partner.
1. Please plan on signing up this Thursday
for the Appletree Project in the
computer lab from 3:00 – 6:30. If your
child qualifies for free or reduced
lunches, then you are eligible for backto-school assistance! Please see the
flyer that I sent home last week. If you
can’t come on Thursday, you can
apply online anytime at
www.ifmdenton.org/appletree
2. The Cinco de Mayo program will also
be this Thursday. There will be
performances at 1:15 and at 6:00.
3. Anytime you can, riding in the car,
during commercials, etc., please ask
you child to count to 120 by 10s or by
5s. If they master that, try 2s.
