I hope you all had a fantastic spring break! I sure did! We were all ready to come back!
Grade cards will be on Skyward Friday after school. Please check out your child's grade card and let me know if you have any questions. I will also be sending home the 3rd quarter skills check sheet attached to their math test and Phonics fluency sheet. Highlighted skills are what your child needs to continue to work on at home and school. If your child has any Behavior/Work Habits highlighted, please visit with your child about what try hard at improving on.
Yearbook orders are due this Friday, March 25. I hope you will consider buying them if it works for you, as we will have a autograph signing time on the last day of school. If it doesn't work for you to buy one, no worries, your child will have a sign sheet to get autographs.
ELA/Social Studies--Mapping! Our next unit is on mapping. We will learn all about how to use a map, compass rose, map key, etc. I will be sending home a mapping assignment for you to help your child at home on Friday. It has an address page for your child to write down their address--please follow the instructions at the top.
Also attached is a sample bedroom map with all the components (map key, compass rose) needed for your child to make their own birds-eye view bedroom map with some guidance from you. These assignments won't be due until April 4 or as soon as they are completed! :)
Phonics--We are continuing with long o (oa, ow) this week! When your child reads/writes words with these vowel digraphs in them, remind them that (oa) is usually found in the middle of a word, and (ow) is usually found at the end of a word. Of course we also, have the silent e on the end that makes it tricky to know which to use to spell.
Math--The chapter 7 graphing test is attached to your child's 3rd qtr. skills sheet. They all did well on it!
Today we began chapter 8 on Measurement and Time.
Sight words-I have been amazed with how well the class is doing on their sight words! Keep up the practice at home! I really notice a difference in their reading!
