Hi everyone!

Tonight's Homework:

• Math: TP 3-1  (Please make sure work is done on another sheet of paper along with the sentences for problem #8.)
• Reading: Summarizing practice

That's it for now.  Short and sweet.  :-)  Have a good evening!

Monday Madness!

Hi everyone!

I hope you had an enjoyable and relaxing week end.  Thank you to all of you that sent back the progress reports today.  I appreciate it.  If you haven't signed it yet, please do and send it back. I do need it separate from the top sheet.  That is my evidence that I am communicating with you about your child's progress.

Tonight's Homework:

• Spelling:  Unit 6 sentences (the first workbook page was completed in class)
• Reading: Summarizing worksheet (both sides)
• Math: Practice 3-2  (They had a good amount of time to begin this in class.  Most should be almost done.)

Also, don't forget about the Lupus walk on October 17.  Notes were sent home on Friday giving information about this.  If you would like your child to participate, please fill out the form that should be in your child's folder and send it back with the correct amount of money.

Thanks for your help and support!

Happy Friday!

Hi everyone!

I did not assign any homework for the week end!  We had a great day and the class worked very hard.
However, since there is no homework, I would like each child to read for at least 20 - 30 minutes each day this week end.  :-)

Progress Reports are stapled in the Friday papers.  Please sign it and return it with the top sheet on Monday.

Finally, Monday is the final day to turn in field trip money and permission slips.

Have a wonderful week end!

Other notes:
Field trip permission slips and money are due by Monday.  I have enough chaperones.  Thank you to everyone for responding.

Have a great afternoon, everyone!

Good afternoon!

Tonight's Homework
Math:  TP 2-3  (Please make sure students use sentences to explain how they rounded on the extended response.  I expect them to use the place value terminology we have been using in class.)
Reading: Read "Fad-tastic Fads" aloud to at least one person.  If possible, more than one person.  Please initial so they can earn a bonus ticket for the prize box.

We have been working on spelling in class, so I am not assigning the workbook pages.  Students should be close to finishing them.  Of course students may work ahead.

Field Trip Update
I want to thank the family members who signed up as chaperones.  Thank you so much for your willingness to help out.

I think that's it for now.  Thanks!

Hi Everyone!

Tonight's Homework:
Math: Rounding Number #2
Reading: "Fad-tastic Fads" (Main Idea Practice)

I did not officially assign spelling. That will come tomorrow, but students can work ahead.

Field Trip!!
Our first field trip of the year is coming up on October 16th.  We will be going to see a production of Mulan, Jr..  What makes this field trip even more special is the fact that one of Meadowview's 4th grade students from Room 4 will be in the cast!  The cost is $10, and I am looking for 2 chaperones from this class.  Unfortunately, the chaperone's will also need to pay.  The $10 covers the cost of the
ticket and transportation on the bus.  If you would like to chaperone, please indicate so on the permission slip.  I can only use the first 2 adults that sign up. We are asking that field trip permission slips and money be returned as soon as possible but no later than Monday, September 25th.   If a student is not paid by Monday they will not be able to attend.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me on the Dojo or email.  Thanks and have a great afternoon!

Happy Monday!

Hi everyone!

Tonight's Homework:
Spelling: Unit 5 - Choose 10 words and use them in complete sentences.  Make sure the sentences make it clear what the word means.
Math: Rounding Numbers worksheet
Reading: Finish Main Idea packet (We did the first page together along with several other examples in class.  Please ask your children to tell you what the topic of the paragraph is before they find the main idea. That will help them.)

Last Friday, your log in information for Power School was sent home.  You can log in at any time to see your child's grades and progress.  I try to update the grades over the weekends.

Progress Reports come home this Friday.

I think that's all for now.  Have a great afternoon!
