Hello my friends!
It has been a busy week with the transition and all. We are actively learning and enjoying our lessons. I love to incorporate technology with my lesson and this includes many educational songs. Based on the students’ suggestions, I will post these songs on the blog so they can enjoy them at home too. We are learning about myths and legends for the next two weeks. We will also write our own myth next week. We started Math workshop which was successful! For social studies, we are learning about the different bodies of water and landforms. For science, we are exploring different forces and changes of motion.
Finally, the book room is open and students have more books to read. I gave every student their own book box with books that they can read. These books will be updated frequently throughout the weeks. I will be sending book bags with students so they can read at home. Don’t forget MYON is a great resource to use for an abundance of books. Student’s received a card with their student ID number and birthdate which is the user name and password for clever (which is a interconnected log-in for all student resources). If you have any trouble with logging in please let me know. Go through the dearborn schools website and click on student resources. Hopefully, it will work from there.
The following links are songs that we enjoy in class:

Hello!
This was our first full week of school and it was awesome! We learned about bar graphs, forces and motion, map skills, long I/short I, fables, and narratives. At night, ask your child what they learned in school so they can reflect what happened throughout the day. We did start NWEA testing this week and will continue to test next week.
I had many parents and students ask me about books. I will be sending books home for students to read daily but the school book room is still not available to the staff. The school is reorganizing the books to help the students become more successful. Please be patient with us and I will send books home as soon as the book room is available. In the mean time, we have library checkout every Friday where students can check out two books a week.
I will add pictures of students under photo gallery throughout the year.
If you have any concerns or questions please feel free to contact me. Enjoy your weekend with my friends 🙂
I’m excited to continue this journey with my students!

For week two spelling, we will be working on long I and short I. The words for this week are:
In addition to these ten words, students will get five “cold” words which they have not seen but has the same spelling pattern for the week. I will also give two bonus words for extra points. The spelling test will be every Friday.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
