God is Love, and all who live in love abide in God
and God in them.
1 John 4:16
Happy Valentine’s Day week! We will celebrate the love of St. Valentine on Friday with a class party/Valentine exchange. Friday afternoon is quite busy for us, so our party will be from 2:20-2:40 PM. You are most welcome to bring treats. I must remind you that our Fresh Fruits and Vegetables grant encourages us to eat healthy when we can and please, please, nothing with nuts! Thanks.
We are differentiating more and more in reading and math. In reading/language this week we will read stories about being lost or losing a toy. We will focus on the characters in the story. Sounds are aw is in straw, ay as in play, the cl and dr blends, and for seconds only, wr as in wrist. Whew!
In math we have moved into leanring about money and place value, along with the ever-important addition and subtraction skills.
In social studies, we continue work on our informational books about a place. This is a ton of work and progress is slow. My hope is to have them completed by March 2, Read Across America Day. February is short and this is a big goal!
I hope you are talking and praying with your child about First Reconciliation! We continue to practice in class as well as reading Bible stories about God’s loving forgiveness. This week we focus on Zacchaeus.
Have a wonderful week and know that you are prayed for; God is love and you are His loved and treasured ones.
