September 26

Good evening! We will have our first Math test on Friday, September 28. Please look over the study guide with your child. The test is very similar to the guide. Also, in your child's folder are 2 order forms for Scholastic books. This is a great way to get free classroom materials because for each order received, our class gets bonus points and coupons towards future purchases! If you would like to order, please send in the order form by Friday, October 5.

For homework tonight, students should read their Phonics Reader and study their Math study guide.

Have a great night!

September 24

Good evening! The students have their first Math assignment tonight. Today we talked about comparing numbers using less than, greater than, or equal to. When your child reads the numbers to you, please be sure he/she is reading from left to right, not saying the bigger number first if it is the smaller number that comes first. Students should complete Home Link 1.11 for their Math homework. They do not have to complete numbers 1-3. For spelling homework, students should write their words three times each.

Have a great night!

Have a great night!

Good afternoon! The Scholastic Book Fair is tomorrow. If you would like your child to make a purchase, please send in the money tomorrow. Please make sure it is in an envelope labeled with his or her name on it.

For homework tonight, students should write their spelling words in ABC order. We practiced writing the first 5 words in class. Please write the other words on the same page, making sure your child skips a line between each word. The spelling notebook should be returned each day with your child's completed homework still attached to the book. Please do not rip it out.

Have a great night!
