It is such a great week! I love Valentine’s Day and everything it stands for; showing the people we care most about how much we love them! A few reminders or clarification on different events in the classroom.
- First, Valentine’s Boxes, Bags, whatever you want to bring to carry home your valentines in is fine with me. We may have a fun little contest about faves…but PLEASE do not stress about it. It should be fun and something your child can collect things in. Do not break the bank! HA
- Next, our “Wax Museums” I only spoke to the students for a moment about this today. But February 15 – #’s 1-15 will BRING their costumes and record their speeches on seesaw with Mrs. Yates. February 16 – #’s 16 – 26 will do it then. Please do NOT wear costumes to school. If you choose to do hair or make up to enhance the experience that is fine. But clothes will change during their time. Thank you so much for all the help.
MATH: Testing on 5MD2 – reading line plots, and distributing amounts equally.
Starting 5 MD 3 – Measuring and understanding volume.
READING: Unit 4 Week 3 – Author’s point of view… they are struggling a little with this on the testing. So I am going to try to hit this from another direction. I am also going to go through the last two tests with the kiddos and have them see and learn from past mistakes. They are doing GREAT with Essay writing!
WRITING: Focusing on Biographies (Wax Museum)
SCIENCE – ENERGY
Social Studies – Olympics 2018!
GRAMMAR – Verb/Pronoun agreements
—Please remember to sign the Valentine’s Day permission slip if you haven’t yet. AND if you bring a card or something to share… it CANNOT be edible.
