What are we learning this week? (January 18th -21st)

**Please note that your child's homework for this week will have LAST WEEK's dates on it, but will still be due next Monday, January 24th.**

Things to Remember:

-Please see the flier in your child's Blue Communication folder regarding the 100th day activity. Please send in a bag of exactly 100 items no later than MONDAY, JANUARY 24th.
-Use your sight word list to be practicing previously learned words, or going further with additional words if your child is ready. Let me know if you need more lists!
-Keep working on your "Going on Bear Hunt" Unit Take Home projects! Remember that these are due for all of kindergarten the first week in February.
