Week of March 17, 2008





We read our weekly poem, Let Q Call U Sweetheart. Our new popcorn word was “are”. We completed our Qq books and practiced writing the letter “Qu”. We learned that “q” and “u” are partner letters in words.
.In math we talked about telling time to the hour. We compared analog clocks to digital clocks. We are working on telling time to the hour. Help your child by noting dinner time, bedtime, etc.
A Peek at Next Week…
Letter: Uu
Theme: Umbrellas
Math: Time and Money


Book-It Reading Program
Our Pizza Hut Book-It reading program is over as of April 1st. You may still turn in your March reading forms throughout the first week of April to receive your child’s March pizza certificate. We will continue to send home a reading sheet that you may return at the end of the month. Tickets to Six Flags Great America will be rewarded at the end of the year to children who have already turned in the Six Flags Read to Succeed sheets.
