A Note From the Teacher
-Our first study trip of the year will be on Thursday, September 22nd. We are going on the "Canoemobile" on Hobart's Lake George. Please have your child dress for the weather that day! We will return in time for lunch, so students will eat as they normally do. For more information about this trip, visit the following: http:/hobart.schoolwires.com/Page/9132
-Please remember to check with Class Dojo on a regular basis. If you have not signed up, you still can.
-If you haven't signed up for Remind messages, please do so. It is easy and keeps you informed.
-Please notify me if you have questions or concerns: lsmithclass@hobart.k12.in.us
or 947-7869 ext. 8552
Language Arts
We will not read a new story in our Journeys books.
Grammar Skill: Kinds of Sentences
DLR Quiz on Friday: Each Thursday students should bring home 4 half-sheets of orange paper with our morning work on them. Students should study the corrected sentences and be ready to take the quiz over them on Fridays.
Math
-Please continue to practice math facts at home. Students can go to FASTT Math on the Cool Tools section of the School City of Hobart webpage (bookmarked on the chromebooks) as well as the XTRA math website to help them study addition facts. Of course, flash cards are also very helpful.
-We will have another 5 minute addition test on Friday.
-Any student that did not score 85 or higher on the 5 minute test last Friday will receive a practice packet which is due on Friday, Sep 23rd.
