What is happening in RM 16?
Week of October 24
Focus Skill: Compare and Contrast
Writing:
We can wait for you to see all of our writing samples at conferences! We will work on our paragraphs about what we want to be when we grow up Monday and Tuesday and then we will be transitioning to a Writer's Workshop model-each day will begin with a focused mini lesson for all and then they will be sent off to practice that skill with a writing piece of their choosing.
Spelling:
Their spelling lists are purple this week.
Math:
Focus skills: fractions
I post links on our Google Classroom that will help reinforce these skills at home :). Your child should know how to log on.
Science:
Scientific Process-They have been having fun experimenting and are slightly behind schedule, but their test will be this week! A study guide was sent home last week for the kids to prepare.
Social Studies:
Regions of Missouri-They are working hard on a group research project!
Check out our Donors Choose Project. We are raising money for some great resources!
Upcoming Events
10/25 & 10/26 Conferences
10/29 Color Run at RSMS
10/31 No School
STAR GRAPHS
Your child has a STAR Math and Reading graph in their binder. We worked hard to organize our binders on Friday so they should know exactly where they are at! I did a quick check-in with each child Friday afternoon to discuss their results. Please look over these with them and let me know if you have any questions at conferences!
Behavior Updates
At the end of each day, your child will color in the results of their day on the calendar in their HOOT Binders. Please check in with them each night. Thank you in advance!!
