Hello Everyone,

I just realized I did not post on Monday so I wanted to send it out now. We have had a busy week already with lots going on. We are working on finishing up everything for our first report card. We still have supplies for the Halloween party that you can sign up to donate. Please visit the previous blog post and comment which supplies you would are planning on donating, if you would like. If you and your student pre-ordered the newest Diary of a Wimpy Kid book in our last book order, they shipped today and you should be receiving it within a week.

This week:

Spelling- We are looking at consonant blends. Our words are chip, shell, bath, shin, three, reasons, conclusion, because, believe and opinion.

Math-We are finishing our adding and subtracting unit. Students will be getting a study guide and taking a test early next week. Ask your student to talk you through some 3-digit adding and subtracting problems this weekend to start preparing.

Science-We are finishing our forces and motion unit next week. This week we are looking at momentum and how energy is transferred between objects.

Social Studies-Students just had a district assessment. Their scores will be sent home as soon as they finished being graded.

Writing-Students are working on opinion writing. They are writing to the prompt “Should students be allowed to trick or treat alone?” Ask your students to tell you the difference between a reason and an example in opinion writing.

Handwriting- Please help monitor student handwriting on their day to day writing and homework. We are working really hard on proper letter formation in our printing.

Have a great week!
