The spelling test will be tomorrow. Please review the words in the green notebook. New spelling words will come home on Thursday.

This week the Decodable Reader will come home on Friday. Please listen to your child read it and sign the back. Send it back to school on Monday. The goal is fluency. Fluency is when it is read smoothly with expression and is understood.

Topic 3 will be assessed in math on Tuesday. Review the pages that come home today, especially the reteaching page.

The new topic in math will be asking the question, “What strategies can be used to find addition and subtraction facts?” We will be counting on, counting back, using doubles, and many more strategies. As always, look over any pages that come home.

Reading Logs will still be accepted if it was not turned in on Friday. The November log will be sent home this week. If your October reading log was not complete, write the books on the new log and then read enough books to hand that one in at the end of November. Thank you for your cooperation reading with your child. The new monthly reward will be a Pizza Hut coupon.

If you requested a conference, you will find a confirmation in your child’s take-home folder.
