Weekly Preview

Week at a glance..

This week we will continue to do reading groups and literacy stations which are in full affect!  We are loving the new books and being able to read lots.  We will begin word study groups this week.  This means that your child may be going to a different classroom for word study instruction based on their spelling level.  We will not give word study this week as we want the students to be comfortable with the switching and a new teacher.  This will only be for 15 minutes each day.  Please let me know if you have any questions about this.

We will begin to talk about local government and communities.

We will learn about place value in math.  We will focus on grouping objects by tens and ones and writing a number associated with that amount of objects.  We will do some counting and play some games with this math concept.

Writing has been progressing and they have been doing a great job with their new organizers.  I hope you noticed some great writing last week in Thursday folders.

Reminders for this week:
Interim reports come home on Thursday.  I will also be asking to conference with some of you in the near future.
EARLY RELEASE on Friday...dismissal time will be 12:25.  This is ONLY for middle and elementary.  NOT FOR HIGH SCHOOL.
Please continue to read, read, read!

Have a great week!
