Be sure to remind your children to dress for the weather as it is going to get colder!<\/p>\n
Reminders for this week:<\/p>\n
Please send in permission slip and money for the IMAX trip to see the Polar Express by Friday. \u00a0If parents are seeing the movie they must also pay. \u00a0Thank you in advance!<\/p>\n
Walk to School Survey–Please fill out the survey and send back to school. \u00a0We are encouraging students to participate in the walking school bus program. \u00a0We will start on Friday.<\/p>\n
Conferences–Wednesday and Thursday 4:00-7:00.<\/p>\n
SAVE THE DATE–DEC. 12–6:30<\/p>\n
Duvall will be combining with Snow and Long Elementary schools to present a Holiday Community Concert. \u00a0Come watch your children shine!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We are learning:<\/p>\n
Spelling–Students should be learning their high frequency words with their individualized list and then using these in their writing.<\/p>\n
Daily5\/Cafe–Our focus this week is making predictions and using the text to confirm. \u00a0We will also be working on informational text. \u00a0Students will also be starting another book for book club, and will work on individual goals.<\/p>\n
Writer’s Workshop–We are currently working on a narrative piece of writing. \u00a0Students have learned how to describe characters and the setting of the story. \u00a0We will work on turning point of the story and will also discuss adding voice to our writing.<\/p>\n
Math–Third grade is reviewing estimating using rounding and is also revisiting addition and subtraction with regrouping. \u00a0We will finish up Unit two with missing addends and patterns with addition and subtraction. \u00a0Students will be assessed on Wednesday. \u00a0Students can also start practicing multiplication facts even though we will not be starting multiplication and division for a little bit.<\/p>\n
Fourth grade will also be reviewing rounding and will complete some What’s My Rule problems with patterns, \u00a0They will also be assessed on Unit two on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Please be sure to utilize the Everydaymathonline.com site. \u00a0When I assign Home links, those with access to a computer will print them and complete them at home. \u00a0Students are not required to return them to school, but I do expect them to do them. \u00a0If your child has trouble, they can let me know and we will review that concept at home. \u00a0The site also has a lot of great resources, including games that your child can use.<\/p>\n
Science–We finished our study of plants and will now focus on animals. \u00a0Both groups are identifying characteristics of the vertebrates.<\/p>\n
Have a good week!<\/p>\n
