January 18th - 22nd

I hope everyone is staying warm!!  We will probably have some indoor recesses coming up.  Please still send hats, mittens, boots, and snowpants.

This week the students will learn their new reading groups and we will begin meeting with them.  We will predict what is going to happen in our new books.  Students are responsible for getting their guided reading finished on time.  They will lose points if they are late.  They are given at least two days to complete the work, so it should not be a problem.

We are off to a wonderful start on our timed multiplication tests.  There is no doubt that there are many who are studying very hard and are challenging themselves.  We will only take two tests this week since we don't have school on Friday.  Studying five minutes every night will help them to master these facts.  I do give them some time to practice in school, but they are realizing they also need to practice at home.  Thanks for your help!

We made 3D snowman as seen from above.  They are going to now write an expository essay on how to build a snowman.  They are starting to understand how to write an essay with a beginning, middle, and ending paragraphs.
