Reading and Writing
In writing, we are continuing our Narrative Unit by generating and sharing many ideas and topics to write about. We studied what a narrative writing piece needs to have to be an outstanding piece. We began writing our stories and will be adding much more as we take it through the publishing process.
Math
Students completed the Math MAP testing Tuesday and Wednesday this week.
We are planning on taking Quiz 2 on Monday, October 10th and the Unit Test on Friday, October 14th. Please check the homework page for any changes.
Again, please encourage your child to work on Dreambox nightly. Students should have a minimum of 60 minutes a week on Dreambox. Although students are allotted time in class for Dreambox, I encourage them to reach a minimum of 20 minutes per night.
VIP: Please use the math page as a way for students to practice for the upcoming quiz and test in Unit 1.
BizTown
Volunteers, many thanks for your extra time on this. Remember to complete the training prior to Thursday's visit.
