Here are a few things happening this week: *In Literacy this week, we are working on the letter U u.  This vowel works very hard because it has two sounds.  The short /u/ sound begins with words such as under, unzip, and umbrella.  The long u says its own name and begins words such as, unicorn, unicycle, and university.  Show and Tell will be on Friday.   *In Math, we are learning about 3D shapes.   *We will be having out Spelling Bee test on Monday, Feb. 11th.  The results will go home on Thursday, Feb. 14th.  Good luck everyone!    *Happy Valentine’s Day!  The Valentine’s Day dinner will be held on Thursday, Feb. 14th.  This will be the only meal served in the cafeteria on this day.  The cost of the meal is $5.00.  We will also have a Valentine’s Day celebration in the afternoon so we can hand out our Valentines.  * Scholastic Book Orders are due on Friday, Feb. 15th.
