Homework:
Literacy:Read three nights this week. Return books Friday.
Math: No homework
Skating:
When: Every Wednesday in February.
Where: Renous rink
Time: 12:40 to 1:45pm
Parents are welcome to join us. Students must have skates and a hockey/skating helmet to be on the ice. Boots are not allowed on the ice.

Literacy (same as last week)
In literacy this week we are review “_es” words. These are words we add "-es" to make the words plural. When words end in the letter’s "s", "ch", "sh", “tch”, "ss", "x", or "z" we add es.
For example, "business" becomes "businesses" and "fox" becomes "foxes".
Extra Practice.
glasses – dishes – lashes - boxes – lunches - brushes
Heart Words (irregular words)
who - does - said – two -once
Math:
We will continue to review skip counting by 2’s, 5’s and 10’s.
We are also working on making or bridging to 10 to add.
For example: 8 + 5, take 2 from 5 to make 8 10 and you are left with 10 + 3 = 13, so 8 + 5 = 13.
This is new and has been a difficult concept for students.
Extra Practice in math:
· Counting money (nickels and dimes only) up to $1.00.
· Friends of ten.
· Doubles ( 5 + 5 = 10)
