What's New In Room 33
Mr. Woodworth's Class
Field Trip...Another New Date
We have another new date for our first field trip. Hopefully the third time is a charm. The museum contacted us and asked us to change our date to Friday, November 13th. Please mark your calendars.
According to our office records, no one has gone to the office to start the volunteer paperwork. If you plan on driving for this field trip, please see Deb in the office.
I sent permission slips home on Friday. The cost for this field trip is $8.
Weekly Homework Assignments
I am going to try to include a list of homework assignment that will be due during the week on these newsletters. There may be something additional that I include as homework, but this should give you a general idea of what will be assigned for homework. Items listed must be turned in that morning.
Monday: Nothing to turn in
Tuesday: Math (Module 2 lesson 2) and Weekly Reading log
Wednesday: Math (Module 2 lesson 3) and Library books that are not being renewed.
Thursday: Math (Module 2 lesson 4)
Friday: Math (Module 2 lesson 5) and weekly spelling work.
Please also continue to have your child read 15-20 minutes every night.
Multiplication Facts
The class is making great progress on their multiplication facts. I will continue to have timed tests around 4 days a week. I pass back the tests to the kids so if you'd like to know which test they are on, please ask to see them.
Accelerated Reader
Our class is doing a great job with AR tests. Based on a test that determined each student's reading level, we set goals for the first trimester. Four students have already met their trimester goals and many more are getting very close. We filled out a goal setting chart if you are interested in seeing it. It should be in their homework folder.
Compass Learning
This week we started literature groups. While I meet with groups, 8-10 kids are on compass learning. The focus is for each student to work on their area of greatest need. We talked at length about this so your child should be able to explain their areas of need or show you on their Compass Learning Dashboard.
Bike Ride
Our first bike ride of the year is this Friday. If your child wants to join us, please make sure they bring their bike and a helmet on Friday. They can store their bikes in one of the classrooms. Please make sure they bring an extra snack and a drink, or they can bring a couple dollars to buy a snack. We stop at the Chevron food mart on the way back to school.
We head out around 3pm and get back to LR Green around 5pm
Progress Reports and Parent Conferences
Friday I will be sending home progress reports. I will update you on your child's behavior, effort, and all of their assignments. I will highlight any assignments that are missing. I will also attach a parent conference request form. You will be able to choose 3 times that work for you and I will pick one of those times based on availability.
Book Orders Due Tuesday
I will be submitting our classroom's book order Tuesday night. You can order on line with a credit card or have your child bring the form to school with cash or a check. Thanks.
