We are finishing up our fifth week of school! WOW! We are getting into a routine, and I am finding that some things are working and some are not. So, it is time to make some changes. Here they are:
This is the last week that the kids will be working on their spelling words at home as part of their homework. We still have spelling words, but the kids will work on them in the classroom. You are welcome to look at our Wonder’s outline that I have posted to the study guide page. There you will see what our English Language Arts lessons will be from week to week.
I am also making some changes in their math homework. I will be adding a few assignments in FrontRowED.
FrontRowED class code: 3hwgw9
They will need to login to their FrontRowED accounts to see what they have assigned each week. Prodigy will not be part of their homework. We will be using Prodigy in our classroom.
For example: Next week I have assigned…
FrontRowED 4.NBT4 #38 Compare multi-digit numbers
Lastly, I am not asking them to watch the news weekly. Instead, I will ask them to watch the news only at times when I post about it in Google Classroom. They will be able to log into Google Classroom and see what we are discussing that week. Then, reply after they do research. If it is about Local or World news, I will have them watch for a few minutes that week. I plan on focusing more on Scholastic News articles. Scholastic News is a subscription each child has that comes to our room often.
Readworks, read for 20 minutes, and Quizlet are still the same as before. I will have all of this posted under our Homework page, so the students have an outline to follow.
FIELD TRIP-Please remember to fill out the field trip permission slip. We will be drawing (out of a jar) the parents who are going to attend in the morning. I will send out a post about the field trip and who has been drawn out afterwards. Unfortunately, we can only take three with our class. Good Luck!
