Reminders
PLANNERS
Please be sure to check your child’s planner each night and initial after you have seen their completed homework. It is a great communication tool between school and home. It is important that your child complete homework when given as it is a reinforcement of concepts taught in class. Please feel free to use the planner to write a note to me if you have questions.
Please practice addition and subtraction basic facts with your child. Flashcards work well. There are also many websites that offer practice with these facts. Short frequent sessions work best!
ADDITION/SUBTRACTION
We will be having timed tests on Thursdays. When students pass their addition, they will move on to subtraction. If they master both I will have them start practicing their multiplication facts. Many are excited to start into their multiplication!
Since we don’t have a lot of opportunity to practice these at school, support at home will help tremendously.
SOCIAL STUDIES ASSESSMENT
Students will be having a Social Studies assessment on Geography of Michigan coming up next week. You will soon see a blue folder coming home with a page attached on the top. The page can be used as a study guide, along with the papers inside. Students have worked hard as they learn more and more about Michigan. We will be reviewing the material in class as well, but they will also need to study at home as well. As you will be able to tell by the papers in the folder, they have learned a lot!!
Thanks again for your support!
