Hello, everyone!
Last week was such a busy week, and our
class worked really hard. I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but our O.W.L.s are
becoming crazy good readers! It is so
fun to hear them reading. It’s especially
exciting this year, with COVID and their kindergarten year being shortened.
They had an uphill road to walk, and they are succeeding!
Here’s this week’s announcements…
* We will have our spelling test on Wednesday. They will be
tested on the week 5 list words.
*I will not be at school on Thursday or
Friday of this week. Mrs. Hecht will be my substitute. If you need to reach me,
you can contact me via email, as I will be available to check email during this
time.
*Last week in Science, we learned about
how an object makes sound. We made kazoos to experiment with that. If your
child hasn’t shown you their kazoo, have them show you, and ask them to
explain how the kazoo is making sound (the air makes waves/vibrates to make
sound). Thanks again for sending in the
paper towel rolls for our project!
