September 22-26th

Thank you to all who attended Back to School Night. It was great to see you again and discuss an overview of the year. Please feel free to call or email if you would like to discuss more. 

In spelling homework this week is back to the traditional spelling list. Here are a few suggestions for studying the weekly words: 
-Write the words in cursive.
-Rainbow roll-n-write the words.
-Write each word 3-5 times each. 
-Write the words in a sentence. 
-Draw a picture with each word. 
A strong foundation in phonics helps with decoding more difficult words. 

In Math, we're continuing with the second half of our module on multiplication and division. We will continue using the terms Labeled Tape Diagram, Array, Number Bond and Equation. This helps students develop a deeper understanding of multiplication and division. 


As we continue reading Charlotte's Web, the students will re-tell the story to their buddies and will conclude the story with a Wilbur mosaic. 

Finally, we will begin working on a personal narrative about our trip to the fair. Thank you to the parents who sent in many pictures from the field trip. This will help in the brainstorming part of the writing process. 
Thank you Jennifer Ford for this captivating picture from the pig races.
