Hello Team!
Thank you so much for your continued support of our classroom and for encouraging your children to believe in themselves, respect others, and do their best!
We are looking forward to celebrating Valentine’s Day on Wednesday afternoon! Just as a reminder, if your child chooses to bring valentines to exchange (totally optional), please make sure they bring enough to share with all 26 students in the class. The valentines may be either non-food items or prepackaged store-bought treats. These treats will be sent home with students. They will not be eaten in class. Please do not have your child write who the valentines are to, just who they are from, in an effort to save time. Students may bring a Valentine’s box or I will have a small bag for them to collect gifts/treats.
This week, we will be reviewing all fraction operations and RISE benchmark testing for these standards. In ELA, we will consider the question, “How does scientific knowledge change over time?” as we study different expository texts based on outer space. We will be working on argumentative writing and continuing our study of food webs in science.
Math Club (tutoring) will be held Monday and Wednesday afternoon immediately following school until 3:35 pm. If we discussed at-home practice or make-up work, please have your child aim for 15 minutes/day. Remember there will be no school next Monday, February 19th, for President’s Day.
Don’t forget…20 minutes of reading each night!
Thank you,
Mrs. Shaw
