This Week's Happenings


5/18/15

Monday: Day 4 > Computer Class
Tuesday: Day 5 > Art Class
Wednesday: Day 1 > Music Class
Thursday: Day 2 > Phys. Ed.
Friday: Day 3 > Library


Topic 14 is coming to a close in math class. Today the reteaching page was completed. It is in the take-home folder. Please review this for the test tomorrow. We will begin Topic 15 on Wednesday. This topic is Geometry. As always, look over the pages that come home and correct any errors for homework.


The Decodable Reader should be read Wednesday. Only those children that I have told need to have it signed and returned. Ask your son/daughter if he/she has to bring it back. Sign it after you have heard your child read it with accuracy and fluency. It should come back on Thursday.


Review the spelling words every night for the final test on Friday if necessary.


Read “Henry and Mudge” in the reading book Thursday. Also look over the pages prior to the story. The assessment on these skills and comprehension will be on Friday.


Don’t forget to read over the words in the blue notebook. This only has to be done once or twice during the week.


As I mentioned in last week’s note, Accelerated Reader is a program we use to assess comprehension skills on books read at the student’s level. Your son/daughter has a username and password to log in to this site. He/She will be able to start earning points over the summer. Look for the Accelerated Reader link on the NS page. If you have any questions, please let me know.


Read, read, read! Remember to continue to read all of the time. This should be done everyday. You will only get better if you practice.


Friday will be the final time to review papers and sign the Friday Folder. On the 29th, the folder is yours to keep. Thank you for your cooperation with this task all school year. Only one more signature required!


I hope you have an exceptional week!


Enjoy your Memorial Day holiday! (No school Monday, May 25)


Tuesday will be Day 4 > Computer Class
