A Note From Mrs. Waters
Next week will be KINDNESS week! Your child has a kindness challenge checklist in his/her home folder. Please encourage your child to complete the checklist and bring it back to school once it is done. We will have a checklist in the class as well to create a culture of kindness in our classroom.
There will be some spirit days coming up. There is a flyer attached about them. There is also a print out in your child's folder for the fridge.
Reading
Students will learn about nonfiction text features, such as labels, captions, glossaries, and timelines.
Writing
Math
Students will use data collection to sort and organize information on a graph, and then they will ask and answer questions about the data. This will be the last week of this unit, so they will take the unit text as well.
Social Studies
From the Office
Girl Up Qatar believes that women's rights are human rights. Join us on the ASD track before school on Sunday morning (7:30-8:00), January 22nd, to show your support for the rights of women and girls. Feel free to bring a sign. We hope to see students, parents, and teachers there!
