Happy Easter!

He is Risen!!
The kids have had a great time telling the HAPPY ENDING to the story of Easter!  We have sorted jelly beans, talked about how Spring in starting, and even used a special set of eggs to retell the story.  As we move on from this story, we are still reading a daily Bible story.  Make sure to ask what we are reading (or singing) about!  

Math Workshops
We have begun our journey with combinations (simple addition / fact families)!  We will each have our own goals to work on through this unit.  Everyone moves at their own pace and practices on their goal number until they are mastered!  Any practice at home with counting is greatly appreciated to keep that fresh.  Everyone should be moving into larger numbers (under 100) and able to keep track of what they counted, tell one more or one less, and count by 10's.

Daily 5
Our dictionaries are quickly getting filled up!  These will be finished soon as we move into more free writing that will keep us all sounding out our words, writing sentences, and working with punctuation.  Encourage your child to help with writing at home.... grocery lists, agenda for what is happening, or just a fun story.  While we move on to these tasks, continue to review letters and sounds, too!
