Hello!

I hope everyone had a fantastic time on our field trip.  This week is a super short week. There is NO school Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. The sad news is this means no word work homework. 🙁 The HAPPY news  is that we do have Reading homework tonight. 

Reading: Free Choice Reading, remember to log your reading minutes. Did you notice that I am logging my reading minutes too? I figured that I should earn the reading party too.

Permission Slips

Hello,

I was only missing 5 permission slips. I sent emails to the five but in sending them I noticed a couple .gov addressees. So I figured I better cover the bases just incase you didn’t get my email. I need permission slips first thing tomorrow morning!

Field Trip

Guess what your teacher is getting ready to do right now? I am going on a field trip with other teachers to the Apple Store. We are going to learn some fun tips and tricks that hopefully we can share with YOU!!

Speaking of Field Trips our class field trip is Monday. We will be leaving the school at 9:15 am sharp. Remember to bring a sack lunch because we many miss school lunch when we get back. With parent teacher conferences I didn’t check to make sure I had all permission slips so check back tomorrow and I will be posting if I am missing any permission slips forms. Thanks for being such great students. It should be lots and lots of fun!!

Have a great weekend.

Happy Monday Everyone!
This week is going to be a busy, busy, busy week.

A few things to remember this Friday is early out. This is not our usual early out Friday so don’t forget you munchkin 1:00 Friday.

Parent Teacher Conference. I am posting the latest PTC schedule. If you can’t make your time and have to reschedule please let me know.

Field Trip next Monday. Even though we will be eating at the school there is the possibility that we wont make it back in time for a hot lunch. Please pack your child a sack lunch and cancel their school lunch. Volunteers, Jake’s Mom and Destri’s Mom were drawn as our official volunteers. If you would like to come please keep in mind that you will have to stand during the planetarium portion of the field trip.

Finally, If you have already paid your field trip fee, thank you, thank you, thank you! If you haven’t there is still time please pay to the office as soon as you can.

PS We are working really hard to EARN our Halloween party. Each student has to earn 75 class Dojo Points to attend the parade. I give points for homework, on task behavior, good answers and doing their best. Unfortunately, I take them away for talking and off task behavior. We are working hard but please encourage your child to be on their best behavior.

Homework Tonight:

Free Read: I continue to be super happy with the amount of time most of you are choosing to read. Keep it up! Don’t forget to log your minutes.

Word Work: Complete Monday sort work

Math: Complete the online math review, don’t forget to email me the results khutchinson@questac.org

(Parents since this is the first night I am attempting this type of Math homework. I will be sending an email response as soon as possible after I receive the homework. If you don’t hear from me please send me an email letting me know your child did the work. Be patient sometimes it takes a moment for the email to process. Leave the window open for a bit. Please encourage your child to work the problems out and not just guess. We will be having a chapter test tomorrow.)

Have a fantastic night and I will see you tomorrow.

Field Trip

I thought,  after talking to a concerned parent and seeing how upset some of the kiddos were, I better explain the field trip situation a little bit better.

The Weber State planetarium holds 60 people. Two classes will be in the planetarium at the same time. All of the third grade classes have 27 students. Students will take up 54 seats, teachers will take 2, and that leaves 4 seats. This is the reason for only two volunteers per class. HOWEVER, if you are ok with STANDING in the planetarium you are welcomed to attend.  

I will still draw names out of hat for the 2 spots. I will post them on the blog tomorrow and if you would still like to attend please let me know. 🙂 Please feel free to share your concerns and questions.

Happy Thursday!

Parents, I will be drawing names out of hat tomorrow for the field trip. Thank you so much for volunteering to come. As I mentioned before we are trying to go on a total of 4 field trips this year so hopefully everyone will have a chance to volunteer. Please remember to pay your 10.00 field trip fee to the office. This fee will assure we have the budget to go on all the field trips. We are trying to be as frugal as possible. Thank you for all you do to support me and your munchkin.

Homework Tonight:

Reading: Free Choice, read for as many minutes as you would like and remember to log your minutes.

Word Work: Work on your spelling tic-tac-toe. Tomorrow is your word test.

Math: Please complete the worksheet below. Read the directions every question should have two answers. You don’t have to print you can complete the problems on a blank piece of paper. Print by clicking on the link  Rounding and Estimate.
