Pratt's Primary Corner
Weekly Update- October 27, 2017
Week at a Glance
Math- We continued working on multiplication through arrays and ratio tables. We've been really examining doubling and how it can help us with other multiplication facts.
Social Studies/Science- We started our first e4tech lesson which really encompasses math, science and social studies! We looked at a map and determined a path that someone could take based on a story problem we were given. All of our buildings on the map had to meet certain constraints.
Reading/Writing- On Monday we worked on our informational writing pieces and looked at question types we might see on the state test. The rest of our week, reading time was dedicated to state testing.
One School One Book
The Primary School will be announcing an awesome, all-school project starting next week. The project is called "One School, One Book," and for the month of November, every student will be reading the same book! :)
The project is optional, but I'm confident students and families will want to participate.
All the reading will be done at home, therefore, we will not have any homework for the month of November. I'm hoping this will encourage everyone to participate. :)

Our kiddos are SO excited when they see a book box come in.
I truly believe that the way students become better readers is when they develop a love of reading. When I see their faces light up over new books, I know they are developing that love of reading. You are truly making that happen, so THANK YOU!
