This Week's Happenings



5/11/15

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


In Math, Topic 14 continues this week…pages will be coming home in the take-home folder. Please look to see if there are any corrections to be made. If so, send them back the next day.


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 “Peter’s Chair” 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.


Continue to review all pages in the Friday Folder, sign and return any tests that are stamped. These tests are very important to review and return. Also, sign and date the back page of the Folder. >>I am not asking for all tests come back signed.
Please only send back those tests that are stamped. If it is not stamped, it is yours to keep at home.


Please keep reading every day. Reading is a homework assignment that all children should be completing each night. Remember to write the books you read on the Reading Log (in the plastic sleeve). Sign and return the page when complete and another one will be sent home. Even though the drawing was last week, we still need to keep on reading.


Accelerated Reader is a program we use to assess comprehension skills on books read at the student’s level. Each child has had the opportunity to take a quiz on the computer in our class. This program will be used in second grade. (We got a jump-start for next year.) The children did great. More information is to follow!


I hope you have an excellent week!

Monday will be Day 4 > Computer Class
