IT'S GOING TO BE A SCORCHER TODAY!
Brace yourselves everyone, it's going to be hot, hot, hot outside today! Drink plenty of fluids and keep calm!
Week of October 1st News
Language Arts - next week (October 8), the students will be taking the first quarter District Literacy Assessment. What I have chosen to do this week is review skills and standards they will be tested on. Therefore there will not be a particular weekly story read, or specific comprehension, vocabulary or spelling quiz. There will be various comprehension passages they will be reading for homework and in class, and various grammar skills they will be working on.
Math - we are hot and heavy into division. This appears to be an area of confusion for a number of students. Please do your best to help them at home, but remember not to complete their homework for them!
Shockingly, this week is a FULL work week, no days off, no shortened days, a regular work week. Please make sure you child comes to school every day and on time. We have so much to do and not enough time to do it!
GREAT NEWS!!!
Thanks to some very generous people in this world, our latest Donors Choose project was fully funded over the weekend, with a random stranger donating the last $22 we needed!! (What a lesson in teaching kindness and giving!) We can now look forward to receiving one more Nook for the classroom. Thank you to the parents of Room 32 who helped make this happen.
That's all the reminders for this week.
Feel free to leave comments at the end of this blog if you would like to...kind only!!
Ms. Bennett
