Weekly Update for 03/02/15

Snow!
Once again, because of the snow days we had over the last two weeks, our sight words, vocabulary words, and spelling words will be held over for this week.  I will put a new homework sheet in everyone's red homework folder.  Stay warm!

Read Across America Week
The week of March 2 - 6 will be Read Across America Week.  We will be celebrating a different Dr. Seuss book each day of the week.  Below is a list of the books and the special ways we will be celebrating those weeks:
Mon., March 2     Green Eggs and Ham   wear green

Wed., March 4    Oh, the Places You'll Go
                      dress as what you want to be when you
                      grow up or where you want to go
Thurs., March 5   If I Ran the Zoo       
                      bring your favorite stuffed animal to put
                      in the zoo
Fri., March 6       Book Character Day     
                      dress as your favorite book character -
                      it doesn't have to be a Dr. Seuss
