Dec. 3-7

Hello,

I will be out of the classroom tomorrow and Wednesday because I will be attending the SLATE conference in Wisconsin Dells with a few other teachers from our school.  We will be learning new ways to integrate technology.  I’m excited for this learning opportunity.  I will be checking my email but if you have any urgent news please call Mrs. Mitchell in the office. 

Book Order:  Book orders are due today! Please email if you would like to set up a time for me to get the books to you as a secret.

Upcoming Events:
12/3: Book Orders Due
12/6: Family Night sheets due
12/11: No School for Students
12/13: Pajama Day and Pizza and Publishing Family Night
12/21: Pajama Day or Red/Green
12/24 to 1/1: Winter Break

Reading:  In reading this week we are learning ways to solve unknown words in nonfiction books. We will add a few new strategies to solve our words. We will goal set and talk about strategies we use all the time and a few strategies we would like to work on.

Writing: In writing we are continuing our work with our All About books. We will be learning how to make our books into chapter books. We will learn how to create a table on contents, chapter titles, and other ways to organize our books.

Math: This week we will be starting a new math unit. This unit is all about place value. We will be learning about making groups of 10’s and 1’s. We will be creating 2 digit numbers and taking them apart. The math homework will be sent home on Thursday this week.

Science: This week we will be continuing our centers.  We will also receive a moon journal to use at home. This is an optional activity to do at home as a family.  

Have a great week!

Hello, So far the weather looks good for our walking field trip! On Friday make sure students have comfortable walking shoes and are dressing for the weather. It is a fun field trip to end our year! This week I will start collecting all of the books that have been sent home. If you could please check around the house for books that were sent from school, that’d be very helpful. I will not be sending home reading or math homework for the remainder of the year, the homework will be to check for those missing books! Thanks!
