Classroom News: August 14th

Parents,

Thank you so much for taking the time to attend Open House last night. If you have any questions about the information presented please let me know. I know it's going to be a great year!

We had a wonderful 2nd week of school. We began reviewing the components of Daily 5, took the SLO’s math assessment, worked on expanded form and identifying the place and the value of three digit numbers, and began learning about Matter. We had our first class meeting and continued to talk about being respectful to others as well as taking pride in ourselves and being the best person we can be every day. We visited the Math Lab, Library, and our guidance counselor, Ms. Weston, visited this week. Next week, we will continue learning about matter and place value and we will visit the Science Lab. We will review more about Daily 5 and we will begin learning about pronouns.

Below are a few reminders:
·        **Homework will start on Monday. It will be due each Friday. Students will bring home a homework journal where spelling activities will be completed. Please label or number the spelling activities in the journal each week. Students will also have a reading log, fluency passage and math review sheets.

·        **Please remember to send in a healthy snack for your child. 

·        **We will go to the library on Monday. Please make sure your child brings their books back so that they are able to check out more books when we go.
