This is an important time where we can sit down and discuss your child's progress so far and develop a team plan for success for the year. I look forward to spending time with you soon. : D
Check our e-class site to find the latest on homework, news and calendar events.
The site is up and running now. It needs some refinement and I want to make it more fun but please do check it out regularly for updates, news and homework. There will be content, website connections through Symbaloo and other information to help your student succeed.
Some of our learning topics
People's impact on the environment
People can both help and harm the environment. Students are learning about pollution and also conservation.
Reality fiction vs. fantasy fiction
Students are reading the story Tops and Bottoms. We'll also be looking at fables as we consider what could happen vs. what is very unlikely to happen.
Our Government
We'll be looking at the structure of our national, state and local governments. We'll discuss how they all play different yet similar roles in our lives on a daily basis.
Picture Day is September 9th.
Mid-term reports are coming home this Friday, September 9th!
Please keep an eye out for the mid-term reports in your students' Friday Folder this week. Please look them over, email me with any questions and then sign and return them. We'll be touching base in person the week of the 26th and I have updated grades at that time as well.
