Dear Families,
In like a lion out like a lamb…here we are in March!
Thank you to all who came to the Puppet Show Playhouse. It was a fun time and I know the students appreciated your coming to support their theatrical debut :-)!
We completed our science experiment and board. I’m very proud of our board and the work that went into it. We learned about the water cycle, evaporation and how to classify materials as a solid, liquid and gas.
We are now back to our life cycle unit and a mini bug and insect unit. The students will:
In math we will begin a unit on Measurement. This will include, non standard and standard measurements. The students will :
In language arts (Writer’s Workshop) we will be working on a Poetry Unit. If your child has a favorite poetry book or poem, please have them share with the class.
Please check the newsletter to find an overview and directions for our Cereal Box Book Report. This is a fun at home activity for the children to read a book and present the story elements using a cereal box. Please see the newsletter for directions. I will send a hard copy home as well.
This will be due March 15th.
Our next Mini Museum is March 16th.
Spring Break is March 21st -25th.
Thank you,
Mrs. Prager

We are now back to our life cycle unit and a mini bug and insect unit. The students will:
- Describe the life cycles of various insects.
- Describe the life cycles of various mammals.
- Compare the life cycles of various organisms.
In math we will begin a unit on Measurement. This will include, non standard and standard measurements. The students will :
- Measure the length of an object by selecting and using appropriate tools such as rulers, yardsticks, meter sticks, and measuring tapes.
- Estimate lengths using units of inches, feet, centimeters, and meters.
- Measure to determine how much longer one object is than another, expressing the length difference in terms of a standard length unit.
- Relate addition and subtraction to length.
- Tell and write time from analog and digital clocks to the nearest five minutes, using a.m. and p.m
