Here are the news items for the next couple of weeks:
Keyboarding- We've finally got our computer issue figured out. We started our keyboarding lessons this week. You can expect keyboarding homework next week. I'm sorry this has been so crazy! On the reading chart, just mark off the days your child did their keyboarding homework. Disregard the nights that there is no keyboarding homework.
Math- We're just finishing up Chapter 6 and will begin Chapter 7. Both chapters are dealing with division. Thank you so much for helping your child complete this homework. It allows each student to get the one-on-one at home that I can't always give at school.
Times Tables- We've covered all of the times tables in class. We will just continue working towards pass-offs for each child. I will be sending a report in the next week or two to show what has been passed off. You will also be receiving information on your child's current reading level.
Reading/Language Arts- We will begin our persuasive essays shortly. In the meantime, we are continuing all of our other Daily 5 strategies. We are also always working on sentence structure, phonics, vocabulary, dictionary skills and comprehension skills. Also a reminder for those of you that would like to have your child participate in the Spelling Bee; the date will be February 28th. The list is found on the South Website.
Homework: Please remind your student to put his/her name on their papers. We are getting a collection of those with no names.
Valentines Party: Thank you to those of you donating to our pizza party. If you'd like to donate, you may send it in to me or Erin Gregerson. She has volunteered to get the pizza for us on that day.
Thanks for your great support at home! I'm very happy with the progress each child is making!
