Good morning,

I wanted to remind everyone of the homework expectations this year. In addition to finishing unfinished class work, students in my class are required to read 30 minutes every week night. Students should be logging this on their October reading log in their Owl folder. Students are also required to do 20 minutes of math practice a night. They can use MobyMax or Khan Academy for their practice. Both of these websites can be accessed through the student page on the Dearborn Schools website. If students miss one or two nights a week I understand, however, if students are consistently not reading or not doing math practice it will count against them.

Thank you for all your support at home,

Miss Wilson

If you have questions feel free to contact me wilsonm@dearbornschools.org

Don’t forget! Tomorrow we have picture day, popcorn day and it’s Outdoor MOVIE NIGHT! The Jungle Book will be playing. The movie will start at dusk 🙂 What a fun Friday!

Good morning,

If your students have not told you the past few weeks have contained a lot of testing! We had 4 NWEA tests to take as well as DRA reading tests. The good news is almost everyone is DONE! We can now get into some serious learning 🙂

This week in reading we will be discussing different genres and the differences between some fiction genres. Then we will begin to talk about historical fiction. In math we will be focusing on writing multi-operation expressions (ex. (20+5) x 4 ) and what they mean.

Excited for a great week!

Miss Wilson

We had an awesome lions assembly today on bullying!

Wow! What a great week! It was so great to meet all of the fifth graders! We had a busy week establishing routines and expectations and we even got started on Daily 5. Starting Tuesday we will be switching classes with Mrs. Niner and Mrs. Rachwal daily. Niner will teach writing, Rachwal will do social studies and science and I will be doing math. I can’t wait to get started!

Heres as a few pics from daily 5 today 🙂

Hello 5th graders and parents!

I am so excited to be moving up to 5th grade this year! We are going to be in room 44 in the 5th grade hall. I am looking forward to a great year full of fun and of course, lots of MATH!

Sincerely,

Miss Wilson

Dear Parents,

Tomorrow we will be going on our field trip to Greenfield Village. We will be leaving by 9:15. If you are volunteering or chaperoning you MUST  be in the classroom by 8:45 with  your child to be counted for attendance and to hear information for group assignments, tickets for you and your group, and an itinerary of the days events. During this time I will answer any questions you may have about the trip.

Please remember:

• Pack a lunch with your name and teacher on it
• Wear comfortable shoes, their is a lot of walking!
• Apply sunscreen before school (The weather looks AMAZING AGAIN!)
• Come to school ON TIME
• Students may bring spending money to purchase items at the gift shop

See you in the MORNING!

PBIS Celebrations

Dear Families,

On Tuesday, May 31st we will be having a PBIS celebration to recognize your child’s positive behavior. This month’s celebration theme is All School Picnic! We will be having our picnic outside, so let’s hope the weather stays pleasant!

Your child may bring a towel or blanket to sit on during the picnic, and we strongly encourage students bring a brown bag lunch since we will be eating outside. However, lunch will still be available for purchase in the cafeteria.

Thank you,

Haigh PBIS Committee
