The first “Real” week….

Well our first LOOONG day went fairly well.  Morning went fabulously but it was a challenge to stay focused after recess.  I’m confident it will get better as the week progresses.  I introduced place value today and we will revisit it throughout the week. 

Just a heads up, I need to benchmark the students in reading, which is a little time consuming so we will be watching some educational videos (Probably Planet Earth, to tie into our science unit on heredity and adaptations), while I complete this testing.  I was able to do their Spelling assessment today and will hopefully have the reading done by the end of the week. 😉

No homework this week, just make sure the kids are reading 20 minutes a night and filling out their reading calendars.   Today was school pictures and a form was sent home.  If you are interested in ordering any, feel free to return the envelope with payment sometime this week.
