Homework and other things...

Hi parents!

We are going to the museum next Tuesday!  If you would like to go with us please let me know.  You must be cleared as a volunteer to go with us.  I absolutely cannot let you go if you are not cleared.  This takes a while so please check with the office to the paperwork started so you can join us.  This inclued grandparents as well...according to HISD policy I cannot let any adult go on a field trip with us unless they are cleard by the front office.


**SIGHT WORDS**
Your child will be tested on their sight words every week.  Please, please, please practice them at home.  They DO NOT need to spell them...they just need to be able to read them.  The sight words for the week are included on the homework coversheet.  Thanks!

 Our spellling rule for this week is the inflected ending -s and -ing.  Today we talked about how adding an -s to the end of an action word means that only 1 person is doing that action.  Tomorrow we will talk about the -ing ending. 

Here are our spelling words:
rocks
packs
playing
backing
seeing
pops
sees
looks
plays
digs

Here are the challenge words:
quacking
locking
practices
watching
laughs
passing
dancing
kicking
helping
tackling

I am in need of some books on CD for our listening workstation as well as a small portable CD player with one or more headphone jacks.  Ours died the other day. :(  If you can donate please let me know!  The kids will definitely appreciate it...they miss the listening workstation!
