Dear Parents,

This is our first week of Advent. We have made a classroom Advent wreath. We also made a chain of good deeds. We will be surprising you with some of them this week! In math we are practicing our numbers up to 14, counting and writing. In Language Arts we are practicing clapping out syllables. We will be reading "The Pot" this week! We are trying to memorize our phone numbers for Social Studies. In science we are learning all about types of land: sand, rock, dirt, pebbles. We are also learning about landforms: mountains, valleys and plains! In handwriting we are practicing capital S, which is very tricky! We would like help from you practicing writing our names, which will be included in our homework folders.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Marsolais and Miss Lautsch
