We survived our first full week!
We will be doing another week of practice with our spelling words and sorts along with how to take the spelling test. The students are assigned a certain color that coordinates with their spelling skills. Next week you will receive a letter with this information and how to sort your child's words.
In math, we are learning the routines of our math classes. We are also learning how to log into Schoology to access our math book pages and how to transfer the information that is needed in our math spirals and onto the correct page. This will take some time getting used to. If we assign a homework page, it will be written in the planner and on the sheet of paper that will need to be returned.
We are also learning the routine for literacy and what is expected. We are not up and running completely yet, but we are getting there.
Thank you to those who sent back the Reading/Facts/Word sheet completed with the times that your child practice their reading and facts. I don't need to know the title of the book they read. Please make sure to write the total at the bottom of each column. Also, please make sure to sign where it says Parent(s) signature. I will not take their paper on Monday if it is not signed. I will hand it back to your child and ask that they take it home to be signed and hopefully they will hand it in the next day. Since this is the majority of their homework, it is really important that it is done so it will reflect on their report card.
We will be having Activity Day NEXT Thursday. Rain is predicted for this Thursday so we are postponing it until next week. Please send a water bottle with their name on it next week so they have something to drink when we are outside from 1-3.
