Week of September 5th, 2016

This week in class... 

Math - We will continue practicing strategies for adding. Our first math quiz will be Friday! The quiz will cover rounding, estimating and strategies for adding. 

Reading - We are continuing our author study of Kevin Henkes. We are reading the story Lilly's Big Day this week. 

Writing - We are learning about verbs and adverbs this week. 

Social Studies - We will continue to learn about features on maps and globes and continue a project. 

Homework...

Your child is bringing home a new reading log today. Your child should be reading 20-30 minutes each night and filling out his/her reading log. Reading logs are due Monday. 

Reminder: If students do not complete math work in class it goes home for homework. Please send the homework back completed the next day. Sometimes the assignment will be given participation points. IF the assignment is more than 1 day late, your child will not receive the points. 

Spelling homework will start next week! Stay tuned! 

Snack... 
Please send healthy snacks with your child. Fruits, veggies, and grains are appropriate. On Tuesdays and Thursdays only the school receives a veggie or fruit snack for every child. I do not provide snack for students that did not bring one. If families would like to donate packaged snacks such a fruits snacks or packaged gold fish, that would be awesome! 

Scholastic News... 
I still have not heard from 7 families about the Scholastic News program for our class. Please return the purple form and fee as soon as possible. If the fee is an issue, some families have paid for extra magazines, so please let me know if that would be helpful. Thanks!
