I had a great week, meeting with all of you for conferences. I loved getting to know you and having the opportunity to share some of the things that we’ve been doing here at school. If at any time you have additional questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to contact me.
Language Arts: We have started the well known anthology “Chicken Little”. So far we have drawn a picture of our favorite scene and added a caption. We have also compared our text book version to others that we have heard before. The children also continue to work hard during writer workshop. They first wrote about a special person and now they are writing about a special place. With their writing I emphasize the importance of revising and editing.
Math: We are in unit 4. We have been practicing our multiplication facts starting with 0’s, 1’s, 2’s, 5’s, and 10’s. Besides learning our multiplication facts, we are also practicing measurement, perimeter, and even the beginning of division!
Computer Lab: We did a reading test again on the computer called the star test. Next week we will be working on some of our math skills on coolmath4kids.com
Social Studies: We are going to begin our unit of study on Rockford. We look at the history of Rockford and compare it to today.
