Reminders
10/7 – Field Trip - Parents if your student is bringing their lunch please make sure to send their lunch in disposable items (ex. Brown bags, Ziplocs, etc.) We will make sure their name is on it that morning. We will give them their red t-shirt Wednesday morning. If you didn’t buy a shirt, no worries. We have one your child can borrow for the day. Please make sure to be on time that morning. As of now, the weather looks good! Let’s hope for no more rain : )
10/8 – Picture Retake
10/9 – No School
10/12 – No School
10/19 – 10/23 – ITBS – parents will not be allowed in the building (for volunteering or to have lunch with your child) during this week because of standardized testing.
Reading:
Our test for this unit will be Thursday, October 8. The test will cover main idea and details, cause and effect, and sequence.
Students are now required to fill out a reading log each week. They will need to read at least 4 days for 20 minutes each day. This week's reading log is on a pick paper in your child's homework folder.
Writing:
Next week we will finish up our narrative writing unit. Students will publish a final piece that will include everything we learned during this unit.
Math:
Please remember that if I do not teach your child math, you will need to check your child’s math teacher’s blog for information and updates.
We took our first multiplication quiz today. Starting next week these quizzes will be timed as students need to have their facts memorized. Here is the schedule for the next three quizzes:
10/8 – 0s, 1s, and 9s facts.
10/16 – 3s, 4s, and 6s facts.
10/23 – 7s and 8s facts.
Next week we will be looking at:
1. Communicative Property - 3x4 is the same as 4x3
2 Identity Property - any number multiplied by 1 is that number 5x1 = 5, 7x1 = 7
3. Associative Property - (6x5) x 7 = 6 x (5x7).
Social Studies:
The Democracy Test will be Monday, October 5 (TAG students will take the test before they leave for the day). Everything that the students need to study is highlighted in their interactive notebook.
