Friday: Day 6 > Computers

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 has been going very well. We will be up to 12 minutes by Friday. The Writing stamina is also continually gaining minutes each day.

The children were introduced to the Listening Center last week. We have 2 more groups to learn, word work and computers. These last groups will be presented and the students will then know all 5 of our ELA Daily 5 groups!

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.

Tuesday 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.

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

I hope you have a lovely week!

Monday (9/16) will be Day 7 > Music

Book orders are due on Tuesday, September 17!
