Hi Everyone,
Sorry I am so late getting this up, but I wanted to give you our updates for the week.
This Friday will be our Unit 3 Math test. I sent home a study guide for the test on Monday. Please have your child complete the study guide and return it to school on Thursday. We will go over it in class and I will answer any questions your child may have. Remember, the questions on the study guide are the same type of questions as on the test, just different numbers. If your child understands how to solve the questions on the study guide they should have no problem on the test. :)
Our spelling list went out on Monday also. This week we are working with the "wh" digraph. This is a tricky one for many kids in the class. Please study the words with your child every night. Our sight words for the week are: she, do, if, how and their.
We started our new incentive program this week for PBIS. The students are collecting tan paws that can be used to buy things in our school store on Tuesday, November 26th. Sears Home Goods has been kind enough to supply the school with awesome prizes for the kids to buy. We will have everything from pencils to headphones for the kids to buy. Everyone is really excited and the kids are working extra hard to earn their tan paws. (Just a hint, each child can earn a tan paw for each homework assignment handed in on time).
Today I sent home a family project, I will post a different post just on that. Until then, know the turkey is due back at school by Tuesday, November 12th so we can do a writing project with it. The kids loved the idea and I hope you have fun with the project too.
This Thursday will be another restaurant night. If you eat at Noodles and Company in the Arboretum and let them know you are from our school they will donate 25% of the sales to the school. :)
This Friday is the end of the first trimester grading period. Report cards will be going home on Monday, November 18th.
We began Guided Reading last week. Some of our groups are already able to bring home their books to share with you. When your child brings home his or her Guided Reading bag, please read the book with him/her and return it to school along with the bag. The packet in the bag will be yours to keep.
I think that is it for now. Have a great rest of your week!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Blake
