Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!


In honor of Dr. Seuss today, we made our very own Cat in the Hat!  Students did a wonderful job coloring, cutting and gluing their cat together.  We took a class picture out in the hallway with our cats!  We read Dr. Seuss' book "Green Eggs and Ham." We learned that before we say we don't like something or can't do something, we should try it first, because we might like it!  After that we had a nice recess outside!  After recess, we had reading groups focusing on our leveled readers, the /e/ sound in words and where that sound is in the word.  We also had a few Dr. Seuss activity pages, our sight word "This" page and listened to "Goldi Rocks and the Three Bears."

Reminders:
1) We have had some students have a lot of "toys" in their backpack and it has been difficult to get take home books and homework folders in and out of backpacks.  It is a school rule that toys stay at home.  If your child goes to a daycare where they can have toys, please make sure it goes to daycare and not school if possible.  Thank you!
2) Tomorrow is the Take Home Book Exchange!  Please make sure you have a note with your child's book!
3) Grandparents Day is March 18th from 8:15-9:00am for both AM and PM kinders!
4) Elementary BoundaryRecommendation Community Input Forums will be taking place on March 2nd at Mead High School and March 9th at Mt. Spokane High School. 
5) With the spring weather, please make sure your child has layers so that we can go outside.  We still need coats and hoods, so we can go outside to play.  Thanks!  :)   

Have a great evening!
~Love, 
Mrs. Wittwer
