Thanksgiving Week Updates

Happy Thanksgiving Week!  Although it is a short one I wanted to give you a quick update anyway.  First things first, NO HOMEWORK!  Whoo hoo!  Only two days of school, so there is no need.  Here is what our short week will look like academically...

Math:  We will take our final test in Module 1.  When we return from break we will begin Module 2.

Language Arts:  We will finish our last 2 Frog and Toad stories, which our students have just loved!  I wish you could hear their laughter as we have read these stories out loud!  We will also be reading about turkeys and working on concepts such as main idea and details, and finding information in our text, and using text to answer questions.

Science:  We will end our body unit with labeling our body parts on our bags.  Then we will review and test on the scientific process one more time.

Social Studies:  Our last switch for the semester.  The kids will have a final Thanksgiving lesson with Ms. Reger.  

Thank you to the families who attended Parent University!  It is always such a great night to work together, go over data, and learn new ways to help your child at home to ensure continued success at school.  To those of you who could not make it, your folders will be going home on Monday.  These folders include our data graphs (Oral Reading Fluency, High Frequency Words, and Math Computation) that show our goals for winter and end of year.  Your child's folder will have an assigned number for your child, so you can see where they fall in these areas compared to where we want them to be on our goal lines.  There are also activities to do at home.  If you have any questions, please feel free to stop in before or after school.

Don't Forget - No School, Wednesday, November 22nd - Friday,  November 24th

Happy Thanksgiving! 

This year I am thankful for this amazing bunch of students who make me laugh and love my job.  I am thankful for such a supportive group of families who work hard helping to make sure our kiddos reach their full potential!  I hope everyone has a safe and happy Thanksgiving!
