Dear Parents,                                    

There's finally some time to update the blog. I know that many of you have been waiting for the glog on Henry and Mudge, however with the tests coming up, I was extremely busy and didn't spend too much time on it. I will link the unfinished glog to this post however and you can still use the material on it. I will try to complete it this week.

The children were given the scope of the test last week but I feel that they are more than prepared for the tests as we have been reviewing in class as well. Today, They got a study schedule and if they follow it, they should do quite well, provided they check what they wrote at least one more time.

They received a new book today, Reading Street 1.5 as we'll start on a cute little story called Tippy-Toe Chick Go! Due to the fact that we are starting this story during the exams, and that next week is a very short one, we'll go very slowly and take three weeks to complete it. They will get their worksheets tomorrow.

I know that Teacher Ivy put this on Facebook, but I will put it here as well. If they review the worksheets, they should do very well.

Scope for First Monthly Tests
Stories: Cinderella, Henry and Mudge and Mrs. Hopper’s House.
Vocabulary: Weeks 2- 5 Weekly Vocabulary
Phonics: vowel sound long e; change y to i, add es, ed, er, est,
        suffixes: ly, ful, vowel sound oo.

Skills: cause and effect, comprehension, correcting mistakes, word meanings

Have a wonderful week,
Carmen
