Welcome to those first time visitors to our weblog. Sorry we have been away so long. There were technical difficulties that have now been resolved.
As we prepare for the last couple of weeks before the winter break, there are some key skills that we will be covering in class:
- We will be finishing our unit on healthy eating this week. Students should prepare for a test on Wednesday.
- In writing the students have been working hard on writing a research paper. The students will finish their papers this week and will begin presenting to other students near the end of the week. Don't forget to complete posters for the presentations.
- Continue reading daily at home. Reading everyday is the most important homework your child could do. On the days of lighter assignments, your child should be reading a little more. On average, your child should be reading 30 minutes a night.
- Math compacting is going great. My math class will be working with geometric figures (i.e. triangles, quadrilaterals, etc.) A perfect home activity is to have your child identify different geometric shapes around the house.
- This weeks spelling words are: almost, live, page, got, earth
Lastly, our winter celebration will be held on December 21. All parents are welcome (remember to sign in). More information to follow. A reminder, we will be having our book exchange on that day so if your child is participating don't forget to bring a book. If your child is not participating and you would like for him/her to participate, please contact me.
Final thoughts:
Change is a normal part of life. If your address, phone number, or child's transportation has changed, please notify the school and the teacher so that our records are up to date.
