URGENT!!!  We are going to carve witch apples on FRIDAY!  Please send your child with a MEDIUM size apple on or before Friday.  If you are NOT going to be able to provide an apple for your child, please e-mail me or send me a notice through BLOOMZ.  

If you have not signed up for Bloomz, please do, it has already proven to be a very useful tool in communication with parents.

We are starting to get our routines and procedures down. We have been practicing 100% (meaning we do things when we are 100% ready to learn) and working on how to line up, walk in the halls, behave in the lunchroom and follow school and classroom rules. I love the way our class is good at all of these things. Our class now knows the difference between character traits and physical traits. We’ve even started our first of many writing pieces and we’ll learn how to use Google Classroom and Utah Compose this week.


Homework

Reading
Of course, reading is the most important part of our homework! All of us should be reading 20 minutes a night, 5 nights a week. You can choose if you want to record your reading every night, or all at once at the end of the week.

Math
This weeks math homework will be completed on www.Prodigygame.com  There are three topics given and will easily be completed over 3 nights for about 15 minutes on the program.   If you have not connected to our class, please do so, following the instructions in last weeks blog post.

Spelling
We are doing spelling a little bit different this year.  We will be training the students on how we would like sorts done, so they will not begin at home until we have trained them at school.

Have a great week!
