This is our last week of school before vacation. If your child would like to bring something for the holiday party they may. A snack for themselves and their own beverage. I will be gone Wednesday through Friday of this week and will return on January 6th. When I return I will celebrate with the class at our own party with treats supplied by me.
When I'm out of the classroom please remember to send notes and not emails to contact the sub. Also remind your child of your expectations when I'm gone. During break your child can be practicing with their flashcards and also their Secret Code cards. Give them some numbers such as, 357 and ask this question. "If I have 357 cookies and I need to put them in boxes of 10, how many boxes would I need and how many cookies would be left over." Do the same problem with boxes that fit 100. I hope all of you have a special Christmas with your child and a Happy New Year.

In Math class we compared the weather temperature to other parts of the country. When we get a cold snap please remind your child to wear their winter gear. It's amazing how many students have the items and don't put them on and wear them.
Also, there are so many of the kids who still have not brought an extra sweater or sweatshirt to wear when we go into the building for specialists. I would strongly suggest they bring it from home and leave it here at school until winter is done. Report cards are being sent home today, (Monday Dec. 9th.) Please remove the report card, sign the envelope and return it the following day. Reminder that Mrs. Martin teaches Reading, and Miss Young teaches Social Studies, Science and writing. I specialize in Math. Nice job of returning the Math homework daily. On the nights I don't send anything home please have them review their flashcards. Or use their "Secret Code Cards." Have your child practice rounding two digit numbers to the nearest ten. Then have them practice round three digit numbers to the nearest hundred. I would suggest you use a tape measure or yard stick. Show them the number 33 and ask is it closer to 30 or 40? The rule for numbers that end in 5 is to round up. We are just learning this concept early in the week. |
