This Week's Happenings

11/16/15


Monday: Day 2 > Phys. Ed.
Tuesday: Day 3 > Music Class
Wednesday: Day 4 > Computer Class (Picture Make-ups)
Thursday: Day 5 > Library Class
Friday: Day 6 > Art Class

A Decodable Reader will come home Tuesday. Please listen to your child read it and sign the back. The goal is fluency. Fluency is when it is read smoothly with expression and is understood. Write it on the reading log!


The spelling test will be Wednesday. Please review the words in the green notebook. New spelling words will come home later this week.


As some of you know, the comprehension tests will move one step closer to independent reading. The children will read the story but I will continue to read the questions and answer choices. This will continue through the next few stories. I will update you when they must read the whole assessment.


Review words in the blue Vocabulary Word notebook. The students read these words orally.


We will continue the lessons in Topic 4. Addition and subtraction will be taught this week using all of the strategies that were taught. If a page comes home with errors that were not corrected in class, please correct and return the next school day. Thank you for your cooperation.


Book Orders are due next week, Monday November 23.


Homework is always to read every night with your child. Have your son/daughter read to you and you read to them. Their reading skills will only get better with practice.


-Don’t forget that our room is chilly at times. Please send in a jacket, sweatshirt or sweater WITHOUT a hood.

-We will be going outside for recess unless it is raining or below 40 degrees so send your son/daughter with weather appropriate clothing.

**Review Friday Folder material. Sign the back page and return on Monday.**

I hope you have an astonishing week!

Monday will be Day 7 > Phys. Ed. *Don’t forget to wear sneakers!
