Here are a few things happening this week:   *  In Literacy, we will be working on the letter U u.  This letter is also a hard working vowel because it has 2 sounds...long u and short u.  Some words with long u include, unicorn, universe, unit, ukulele, university, and unicycle.  Some short u words include, uncle, under, us, up, ugly, and unzip.  Show and Tell will be on Thursday this week because Friday will be very busy with the 100th day and Valentine's day.     *  In Math, we are still working on Unit 3: Geometry and Measurement.     *  On Friday, February 14th, we will be celebrating our 100th Day of School.  A note will be sent home in regards to a 100th day project.  Your child can make a poster or t-shrit will 100 things...your choice.  This is an optional project.  We will be having our celebration in the gym.       *  Also on Friday, February 14th, it is Valentine's Day.  We will have our party in the afternoon and pass out our Valentine's.
