Mr. Hauptmann’s Class Newsletter
Unit 3, Week 4- February 6, 2012
This week we are reading “Eye of
the Storm” by Stephen Kramer. We will
focus on some vocabulary words in this story.
It would be helpful if you will reinforce the meaning of these words at
home with your child. Also, on this
newsletter you will find our spelling words for the week. Please practice these words at home as
well. The words in italics are our
challenge spelling words. Let’s have a
great week!
