THis Week...

Thank you so much for meeting with me at your PLP!  I enjoyed meeting with each of you!  This is such a great class.

This week is Read Across America Week.  We will be having all sorts of Dr. Seuss fun in class.  Here is the list of the Spirit Dress Up Days...

Math:  We will be starting our new math chapter that will introduce the students to triple digit addition and subtraction.

Reading/Writing:  We will be reading Dr. Seuss books this week and working on character, setting, problem, solution and other story elements.  Of course, we will be working on answering in complete sentences and using correct punctuation and uppercase letters.

Science:  We had fun on Friday with a little challenge.  This week we will be making claims and find evidence that supports our claims!

STAR Homework

We are back to it this week.  Thank you everyone for your feedback at PLPs regarding homework.

Reading:  Remember, reading is a high priority each night...this week especially!  In the Monday folder you will find a reading log for Read Across America Week.  Fill the reading log out as well as circle the stars for each night.  Every 10 minutes = 1 Star

Math:  I included a math page from our math curriculum for this chapter.  It's a game that you can play and earn a star.  Feel free to make up math problems and have your student solve them to earn a star.  

Spelling/Writing:  We are back at it this week.  I have spelling tic tac toe sheets if the students ask me for one.  Spelling City is also a great option.  A lot of students indicated that they wanted to work on their writing.  Have them write their spelling words in a sentence or a story using complete sentences, punctuation and uppercase letters.  It's a two for one deal...a star for writing and a star for spelling!  

All STAR Homework sheets must be turned in on Friday to count towards our weekly goal.
