Dear 1st Grade Parents.

Welcome spring!!  With baseball, softball, and lacrosse seasons in full swing and the weather being beautiful spring is definitely here for now!  Hopefully the weather minus the wind will hold out for spring break!

Math

This past week students spent time exploring fractions.  So far students have worked on looking at fractions as a whole broken into equal parts.  Our focus has been on the fractions ½, ⅓, and ¼.

Our work in  fractions will continue this week with an assessment on Wednesday.  Here's this week's homework.

Monday	IXL J.3 Simple Fractions:  What Fraction Does the Shape Show?
Tuesday	IXL J.4 Simple Fractions:  Which shape Matches the Fraction?
Wednesday	Review Worksheets
Thursday	No Homework--Happy Spring Break

This week will be busy as we count down the days to till Spring Break!!  Wishing you all a safe and fun-filled Easter and Spring Break.

Sincerely,

Anne Bloomfield
