TGIF!!
Here are today’s assignments:
Asking a favor…could you please make sure your child puts their name on every page of work? Thank you so much!!
MATH
Chapter 13 – Addition and Subtraction to 40
Lesson 4: Subtraction with Regrouping
Pages 73-76
Subtraction with regrouping is very difficult for children this age so a lot of patience will be required on your part. I hope the following links will give them a better understanding of regrouping. I would suggest watching the videos before doing pages 73-76. I feel just awful that we weren’t able to begin regrouping while in school. Thank you so much for being such great teachers for your children!

When Rooster Crows
By Julia
When the rooster crows the farm knows it’s time to go
The farmer goes to mow the lawn but first he has to put his overalls and boots on
And then he sees a train go by and it toots
Dog is hiding in the boots
Get him, have some tea and now don’t be late for more working!
At night maybe we can roast some s’mores
Ok, but first let’s do the chores
Horse spits out the apple cores
Now horse is crying what’s the MATTER!
False Alarm what a clatter
Close to bedtime now
Get in bed, read a book
Sing a song and sleep all night
Rooster wakes
Oh no I’m late!
Throw breakfast on a plat

ZOOM MEETINGS
I will be sending out another Zoom meeting link for next Thursday, April 9th at 10:00. Both classes will be together (oh boy!) and Mrs. Baker is going to read a story, The Bread of Life, Celebrating of the Eucharist.
After we return from spring break, I will be scheduling regular Zoom meetings for every Tuesday beginning April 21 at 11:00. I will also be scheduling “office hours” every Friday beginning April 24 from 11:00 -12:00. All Zoom meetings are certainly optional on your part but I do look forward to seeing all my little friends. The Friday office hours are just for the kids to pop in and out and chat with me one-on-one or with a small group. It’s also a great time to ask me any questions about the assigned classwork. I’m happy to hear some reading too!

MY HOURS
