Hello Everyone!

If you haven’t yet had a chance, please sign up here for our student-led Family-Teacher Conferences (held this Wednesday and Thursday). I look forward to meeting with each of you!

With conferences, there will be no tutoring this week. We have full days of school Monday and Tuesday and early out Wednesday and Thursday. There is no school this Friday, February 2nd. If your student needs extra math practice that would be a great day to catch up with the IXL lessons posted in the Google Classroom. Students know how to access these lessons.

This week, our young mathematicians will be learning how to subtract fractions with unlike denominators. It would be awesome to have them help out in the kitchen and get hands-on practice working with measurements in recipes. In ELA, students will continue reading about making discoveries and visualizing as a reading comprehension strategy. In science they will be learning more about the cycling of matter, specifically plant growth.

As always, please encourage your student to read at home–at least 20 minutes every night!

See you soon,
Mrs. Shaw
