Welcome back from a wonderful Labor Day break!
I will be updating the blog everyday with homework assignments and needed bits of information. Normally I send out an email of information, but this year I will be utilizing the blog more.
So….here we go!
Third Graders: Homework for this evening is as follows: Find four number patterns and record them. Select one of the patterns and write a story problem incorporating the pattern into it. Bring in a chapter book to have on hand. Read for twenty minutes. Practice math facts.
Fourth Graders: Create four dollar amounts and write them in the three ways discussed and practiced in class today {example: $4.78 : 4 ones + 7 tenths + 8 hundreths, 4 dollars + 7 dimes + 8 pennies, 4 ones + 78 hundreths}. Bring in a chapter book to have on hand. Read for twenty minutes. Practice math facts.
End of year test results were sent home with all fourth graders…be on the lookout!

Thank you parents for all you do!

We made it through the first day! And what a great one at that!
Thank you for the supplies for our room! We will be putting them to good use throughout the year.
Homework for tonight is to make sure that your student has a book to read during Silent Sustained Reading time and to bring in a magazine or two that can be cut up.
Have a great evening!
