Week 10

Hi parents! 

This week in…

Spelling: We took our spelling quiz this morning.

Grammar: We have been talking about adjectives this week.

Reading: In reading we have continued to discuss summarizing fiction stories. We also discussed how technical texts explain a procedure or how to do something. We looked at different recipes and looked at the different steps to the recipe.

Writing: We began talking about persuasive/opinion writing.

Social Studies: On Wednesday we took the Native American test.

Science: Our new science unit will be on forces and motion.

Math: We are beginning Unit 2 which starts out with multiplication and division relationships.

Due to our shortened schedule for conferences, we will only be doing 3 subjects.

Next week in…

Reading: We will read different types of scientific and historical informational texts.

Science: We will continue to discuss forces and motion.

Math: We will continue with Unit 2 on multiplication. When we start getting into the different ways to multiply, I will be sending out a video explaining the steps to help clarify any confusion.

Picture retakes are rescheduled for October 25^th. If you ordered pictures they were sent home yesterday.

Parent Vue and Student Vue will be down until after conferences so if you have trouble logging in just know that it has been deactivated for the week.

I am looking forward to seeing you all next week for conferences! Please remember to be on time to your conference. We are on a very tight schedule and will not be able to run over if you are late. If you are early and have time to take a 10-15 minute survey, you can do so in the upstairs or downstairs computer labs. If you cannot come early, please stay after your conference to complete this survey. The class with the highest number of parents who take the survey will be rewarded with a treat! If your conference time is after 3:15, please plan on coming through the ASP doors in the back of the building as there will be no one in the office at this time to let you in.

I will be submitting the Scholastic order on October 31^st so please get your orders in!

If you have any questions, as always, please do not hesitate to email me.
