Whew, what a crazy start to the month of March! We made it through Online Schooling and a week back at school!! All of you parents were rock stars and I'm so grateful for all your help with the kids at home!! They came back and I could tell they had done their work! Yay! What a week back too! Here's a couple of important things: Important Information: 1.) Student-Led Conferences Tomorrow (3/20) - I sent an important email regarding student led conferences. Here it is again:
3.) Scholastic Book Orders: If you would like to order some books, go to http://world-schools.scholastic.co.uk/okinawa-christian-school-intl to browse the latest books and order online. For every $1 you spend on this month’s Book Club, our school will earn 20¢ in Scholastic Rewards to add new books to our classroom library. Make sure the order is under 2.2 Lyons to help our class earn reward points. Please place your order online by April 3rd, 2020. Catalogs were sent home today! 4.) Field Trip to the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium will be on April 17th! More information about the field trip coming soon, but if you can mark the calendar for the date and happen to be free, we would love/need your help! We need a good number of parent chaperones for this field trip since the location is quite large and it is much easier to go through it in smaller groups! Upcoming Dates: 3/20: Student Led Conferences 4/4-4/12: Spring Break 4/13: 4th Quarter Begins 4/17: Field Trip to the Aquarium 4/24: Kid City 5/4: No School 5/8: Field Day 5/25: No School- Memorial Day 6/10: Last Day of School (Early Dismissal @12:30pm!) A look at our week: We did a lot of reviewing from our 2 weeks online: Math: We took a test on Graphing and reviewed our 2D shapes with a fun TACO craft. Check out Seesaw for some pictures! Reading: We reviewed Main Idea and also began learning about Text Features in Non-Fiction books. We learned what the Table of Contents, Glossary, and Index are and how to use them. Phonics: We learned about the Long i vowel teams like: -i_e, -y, -igh, -ie, and i. We practiced editing passages with incorrect spelling. Bible: We learned about about what happened on Tuesday of Passion Week (the week before Jesus died on the cross). We learned that Jesus told a Parable of the Wicked Renters and foretold his death. Finally, we also got the exciting news that our class won the most minutes read for Reading Olympic Challenge! We will get a movie and popcorn party on Friday 3/27!
See you tomorrow at conferences and have a great weekend! Mrs. Lyons Comments are closed.
