The new school year is off to a great start!  Our first science unit is about insects and our caterpillars will be arriving this week.  We will observe and record all the changes that they will be
going through in the next few weeks.  Ask your child how to tell if a bug is an insect.  We have
learned three ways they are all alike.

We have also started our Silly Story theme in Reading.  The kids are enjoying reading about Dragon and Julius.  They also are enjoying the short vowel poems with the songs and actions that help them learn those sounds.

We are starting our Topic 2 math unit.  This will be about strategies to help them learn their addition and subtraction facts.
I hope you enjoy the web site and are using the spelling link to help your kids learn the Bank 2 list.
