Now that Open House, Parent Meetings, and Testing have ended, I feel like the school year is officially off to a wonderful start!<\/p>\n
Students are now practicing classroom routines and prodedures along with PBIS expectations.\u00a0 Color changes have started, but please know I am not changing colors without warning first.\u00a0 I am fair.\u00a0 I know we all make mistakes.\u00a0 Please trust that in September and October I must be firm with expectations so that we may transition into a smooth year.<\/p>\n
Here is a quick explanation of where our classroom is headed.<\/p>\n
Spelling – Words will be coming home every Monday.\u00a0 Spelling words should be entered into the planner.\u00a0 Test on Friday.<\/p>\n
Daily 5 – We have practiced Read to Self, Read to Someone, Listen to Reading and some Word Work. Soon we will be starting our literacy groups.\u00a0 During Daily 5 the children are expected to work independently while I am with small groups.\u00a0 I expect integrity.<\/p>\n
Math – We are half way through the first Module.\u00a0 This module takes the children through the process of multiplication and division.<\/p>\n
Science – After learning all about scientists, we will be diving into Forces and Motion.<\/p>\n
Social Studies – The first unit includes learning where Michigan is located, what are its natural and human characteristics.\u00a0 Please allow your child to bring in one can of Play-doh (any color) as we make models of landforms.<\/p>\n
Parents are always asking if our classroom needs anything.\u00a0 Currently, we are in need of tissues, candy for the candy jar, small prizes for the prize box and Clorox wipes.\u00a0 I appreciate any help!<\/p>\n
Thank you for your support.\u00a0 I am always an email away!<\/p>\n
