VOCABULARY WORDS

Each week I am sending home a note with the sight words we are working on. I will also post the words on the Happy Hive. Parents can help their child at home by studying these words. You can make your child word cards to study. These words are tested each week by using them in sentences. This is not a spelling test. These are reading words we use in our stories. Here are the words for the Week of August 24 and the Week of August 31.

FIRST GRADE WORDS

away come down no will

all are find make play

SECOND GRADE WORDS

apartment could elephant have need pianos quiet

hundred knocked outside sick taste tears

A VISIT TO THE CITY BUILDING

The First and Second Graders visited the City Building in Wakefield this past week. The students have been learning about laws and rules in Social Studies. They enjoyed sitting in the mayor's and city council seats pretending that they were at a council meeting. A special thanks to City Clerk Jeri Mason for taking time to visit with the children.
