We have our first full week of school this week!
We are starting to get into a routine and the students are catching on to the routine. We started to switch for math based on their Unit 1 Pretest and how they did on the Beginning of the Year Inventory Test. Some children have Mrs. Devlin, some have Mrs. Jensen, and some have me. Our first unit we start with multiplication and division with 5s, 2s, 0s, 1s, and 9s. We have done a lot with 5s and 2s so any practice would be greatly appreciated.
In Social Studies, we are talking about community and belonging.
In reading, we are learning about the expectations what good readers do. You will see a Reading/Facts (R/F) Sheet come home today (9/14) with a letter. Please encourage your child to read at least 20 min. a day and practice facts 10 min. This can include math homework. They can practice with flash cards, practice sheets, iPads/computers, or just verbally when riding in the car or cooking dinner. If you need practice sheets, please let me know and I will send some home with your child.
Monday and Friday we have wellness. Please make sure your child has a pair of gym shoes that can be kept at school.
