Pokemon Cards are Banned

Pokemon cards are now banned from our classroom. We have had students who have been playing with them in the bathroom instead of coming to class. Bummer!

Week of 9/16 – 9/20

We have a field trip TOMORROW! Please make sure your child brings a backpack, their lunch (if they signed up for home lunch), a jacket, and an umbrella as it might be colder and rainy tomorrow. Electronics are not allowed on the bus, but students can bring a book, or a notebook to write and draw in if they would like. 
There is not a specific color students must wear, but they must all be in uniform. Please have your child on time to school at 8:30 so they don’t miss the bus.


Just a reminder that homework is optional, but reading at home is not! Reading aloud for 20 minutes a day helps so much.

Here is what we are learning in math this week:

Homework is OPTIONAL

Parents,

Reflex and Readworks homework is now OPTIONAL. Students are still asked to read 20 minutes every day and to fill out the reading link found under the Homework tab. 

Reading 20 minutes a day with your child is so important.  Have them read aloud to you and ask them questions about what they are reading. We hope they learn to love reading every day!

Week of 9/3 – 9/6

Homework starts this week! Wahoo!

Every week, the breakdown of homework can be found under the Homework tab on my blog. On Mondays and Wednesdays, students will be required to get a green light on Reflex (this is temporary. Math assignments will change throughout the year). They will type in “emily.dixon” to login, then Dixon 2019. After they’ve found they’re name, they’ll need to enter their password. All students should know they’re password since we have done this in class multiple times. However, please email me if your child does not remember their password. 

On Tuesdays and Thursdays, students will be required to log onto READWORKS  to read an article, and answer the questions assigned. Our class code is XJYYJJ. The students’ passwords will be 1234 for this first time logging in. Once they log in, they are able to change the password if they would like. 

Students are required to read 20 minutes EVERY DAY! There are so many studies that show how crucial this is to a child’s reading abilities! Please make sure this is happening. On Thursdays, students will click on this LINK to log their reading and remain accountable. It does require the parent to sign off on it as well. 


Here is what we are learning about in math this week. There is an additional enrichment activity you can do with your child if you would like!

Have an awesome week!
