This Week's Happenings

9/10/18


Monday: Day 10 > Art Class
Tuesday: Day 1 > Keyboarding
Wednesday: Day 2 > Phys. Ed.
Thursday: Day 3 > Music Class
Friday: Day 4 > Computers and PICTURE DAY!


In Language Arts, we will continue with our reading strategies to become better readers. As you are reading with your child, ask him/her about what he/she has learned and how to use these strategies.

We are still building our stamina in order to have the muscle to do group work. Our Read to Self/Read to Someone stamina will be up to 16 minutes. The Writing stamina time will be 19 minutes by the end of this week.

The children have now been introduced to the Listening Center. By the end of the week we will learn another of our groups. We are really getting close to try group work. Hopefully if all goes well by the beginning of next week we can begin!

We are getting into our first unit in Math this week. The students will be collecting, sorting and organizing data. The papers that come home are yours to keep and review with your child. Math will also be using small groups so the stamina we are building throughout these first few weeks will benefit us tremendously.

Friday is Picture Day so please send in your PSP envelope with your child.

Homework is to read any material with your child, at least once a day.

This week you will be receiving a Reading Log. Whenever you read a book to your child or your child reads a book to you, write it on this paper.

Our goal is 15 books each month, but if you read more, I will send home another page…

Please sign and date the page on the back of the Friday Folder, thank you!

I hope you have a lovely week!

Monday (9/17) will be Day 5 > Art Class

Book orders are due on Monday, September 17!
