    ·        SIGHT WORD REVIEW: Please continue to review ALL sight words for our final assessments of the year! 

     Sea Animal Fact worksheet: Your child has been assigned an ocean animal to research.  On the sheet provided, have your child write 3 facts about his/her animal.  These should be short phrases (just one or two words for each fact).  We have practiced the difference  between fact and opinion so your child should know that “sharks are cool” is not a fact.  OCEAN REPORT FACT WEBS: Please make sure to complete your ocean animal web (came home in Wednesday folders 5/4). These need to be returned by next Wednesday 5/11.
