It is hard to believe that we are entering our 4th month of school. Parents please continue to check your students Reading Log and encourage them to read at least 20-30 minutes nightly. On Thursday 10/30 an AR list went home so that you could see the AR tests that your child has taken. A report from StudyIsland was also sent so that you could see your child's scores on various reading skills. You can have your child work on StudyIsland at home if you have internet access.
We are currently finishing up our unit on Native Americans and many students have done an excellent job with their diorama. We will begin our study of Early Explorers.
In Science a Parent Newsletter was sent home that gave many interesting web sites and activities that you could discuss with your child about simple machines.
Please continue to have your child study their math facts. We are finishing up our study of multiplication and division and will begin our unit on Geometry.
Thank you for partnering with me to see that your child has a successful year!
