Math test tomorrow

Hello,

I just want to let we know they are coming home with a completed math test review. Feel free to go over it with them and/or give them some similar problems to work on if you feel they could use a little more practice.

P.S. Not only do we have a half day on Friday and off on Monday, we also have a half day on Tuesday.

We are going to finish up our reading NWEA today and will begin the Math one next week, probably Wednesday. Then they can breathe again for awhile.

NWEA, Math, and SS tests

Good Morning,

We’ve got a busy week of testing starting tomorrow, (Monday) with the reading NWEA test. I will give the math one next week. We also have a social studies test coming up this week and a mid module math test. I will be reviewing for both of these this with them this week. Also, we will be spending this week learning about Martin Luther King, Jr. by reading about him and doing activities. If you have a chance to speak to your child about the pivotal role he played in the United States in regard to race, peace, tolerance, and love, please do so as it will give them some prior knowledge to build upon.

Thursday is skate night.

Friday is a half day, spelling test included 😉

SS homework tonight

Hello,

Welcome back! Hope you all had a safe and happy two weeks! Students are bringing home a short social studies homework assignment. If you could sit with them and brainstorm some answers together that would be great. It is due tomorrow. 1-8-19.

Also thank you for all the gifts (in case students lost their thank you note 😉   I truly appreciate your kindness and generosity.

Math Test and Math meeting at 3pm today if you have questions about the program

Good Morning,

Math tests are going home today. Sorry for the delay, I was unsure how to go about grading it and then found that Eureka Math has a rubric for scoring the tests, so that is what I used to score their tests. If you have a chance, go over the test with your child.

Reminder: There is a math meeting today in our room at 3:00 pm if you have any math questions come on by.

 

Readworks website

Good Morning,

Yesterday the students were taught how to use Readworks.org.  This website provides articles that I assign for them to read. There are questions they can answer as well for most all of them. The site assigns a due date, you can just ignore that. This is not homework, just another resource they can use to practice reading. They can count this as part of their reading log minutes. They have it as a choice during daily 5 as well. Yesterday and today they are learning to take notes by writing down some interesting facts they learn from the article. Some of the articles also have them focus on a vocabulary word.

Notes…

Hello,

Our class will be shopping at the Holiday Shop on Thursday December 13th at 9:30 am. If you would like the to purchase gits please send them with some money and a list of who you want them to buy a gift for. If you’d like to volunteer see my previous post to sign up for that.

MATH TEST-Student will be taking their end of module 1 assessment on Tuesday. We will do a practice test on Monday. Feel free to look it over with them and plug in different numbers to the story problems as they are quite similar to the test if you would like them to have extra practice.

Speaking of math I have sent home a flyer inviting you to a questions and answers type forum in our classroom on December 17th at 3:00 pm. See flyer for more details.

 

Holiday Shop

The Holiday Shop will be at Snow from December 11th to December 13th. We are using a different company this year and they have some great new products for our kids to purchase. They also have gift certificates available for purchase online so if you don’t want to send the kids with cash this is a great option. Information will be sent home next week including the time the classes will be shopping. We have created a sign up for volunteers to help during shopping hours. If you are available to help please sign up, we can’t do events like this with out great parents like you!
