Week of August 19th
Hello Parents!
I hope everyone had a great weekend!
WISHLIST ITEMS
WHAT WILL YOUR CHILD BE LEARNING THIS WEEK?
Spelling Homework. I'm sorry if I did not clearly explain the Spelling Homework! The students keep the spelling words in the agenda. They should bring the spelling journal home and complete one activity per night from the Spelling Choice Board. The activities should be completed in the journal. Freckle is a great site for extension activities if the homework is just too simple. The homework is meant to be review and practice for now, so hopefully, it isn't very difficult.
In Language Arts, we will continue to talk about Reading and Writing workshop, what it should look like, practice Daily 5 activities, and begin working more in depth on writing pieces. I have now gotten the students entered into RAZ, Read Theory and Freckle, so these sites are available for practice and extension. Most students have completed the pretests which will level them.
In Social Studies, we are continuing to talk about government, why we have rules and laws, and the roles of President, Governor, and Mayor. The students will be assessed at the end of this week. We will then move onto Georgia regions next week.
In Math, we are continuing our unit on place value. The students will be assessed at the end of this week on skills learned. We will then move on to Problem Solving within 10.

WEEK OF AUGUST 12
Hello Parents!
Thank you so much to those of you who were able to make it to Open House! If you couldn't make it, no worries! I have sent the information home. Just let me know if you have any questions.
REMINDERS
WHAT WILL YOUR CHILD BE LEARNING THIS WEEK?
We will begin homework this week. The homework will come home on Monday and should be returned on Friday. The students will glue the spelling words and spelling choice board into the Spelling journal.
In Language Arts, we will continue to talk about Reading and Writing workshop and what it should look like. We are practicing Read to Self and Read to Someone stamina. Hopefully, we will be able to talk about what "Listen to Reading" should look like. I will give the students the logins for Read Theory, RAZ Kids, and Freckle. This website are all on my blog.
In Social Studies, we will be talking about rules and laws and government leaders. Eventually, I would like the students to be able to compare and contrast the duties of the president, governor, and mayor.
In Math, we will be working on place value - hundreds, tens, and ones. The students will be practicing how to take a standard number and write the word form, expanded form and pictorial form (hundreds, tens, and ones).

REMINDERS
First, I would like for all of the students to have a binder
with pockets for the agenda and any paperwork coming home or for you to send money/notes. If you have not
already sent your child with a binder, I would love it if all of the students
could have one.
Second, please remember to send transportation changes in
the agenda. You can write the note in the agenda as I will be checking them
daily. I do not require signatures daily, but please check it daily as well for
important notes from me or from school.
Third, please send a snack for your child every day.
Last, please purchase a STEM t-shirt if you have not
already.
