Welcome Back!

Superkids
We started unit 8 today in The Superkids' Club!  This year is just flying by!  In unit 8, we will discuss K and Qu.  We will read a play that the Superkids are putting on called The Glum Princess.  We are going to try to do a Reader's Theater with the play next week or the week after and perform it for Miss Records' first grade class!

Math
We are almost finished with unit 7 in math.  Today we started making number scrolls!  Most of the class got their first blank number grid filled in from 1-100, and taped another paper on to write 101-200!  We are going to work on this project from time to time over the next couple of weeks in math.  I challenged the class--the highest I've ever had anyone get is 700.  Some of the boys and girls want to write all the way to 1000!

Sight Words
This week our sight words are: who, where, what.  Please add these to your practice at home!

NWEA
End of year NWEA testing is next week!  We will test reading and math on the computer (Times/days are TBA).  Please make sure to remind your child to try their best and show what they have learned this year!  Also make sure they are getting plenty of sleep, and a good breakfast!

Spring Carnival
The Creekside Barnyard Bash is next Friday, April 15th!  5:30-8:30!  Make sure to mark your calendars and come out for a lot of family fun!  Fingers crossed for no rain--I'll be outside with the petting zoo and Touch a Tractor! :)

Kindergarten Registration
Kindergarten Registration for the 2016-2017 school year is tomorrow night from 4-7pm.  If you know anyone who has a child that will be in Kindergarten next year, please help us out and remind them to come to Creekside tomorrow night!  There will be screening, pictures, a bus, scavenger hunt, and more!

Book Order
The April Scholastic book order is in folders today.  This will be the last book order for the school year, so stock up!  I don't like to order in May for fear the books won't arrive in time before school is out!

Have a great week!
