Happy Friday, Parents! We had a wonderful week thinking analytically about our books to help us get reading for book clubs starting Monday. Also, for Unit 2 in math, students will be working on Multiplication and Division. It is time for students to practice their multiplication facts, especially their 6’s, 7’s, 8’s, 9’s, 11’s, and 12’s. Here’s a website they can do at home to practice: https://www.timestables.com/flash-cards.html. Here is some information for next week: We are still collecting items for Hero Gift Packs. Please see the attached flyer at the bottom of the blog post to see what items to bring in. We will be celebrating Halloween on Monday, October 31st. It is an actual hero day, so dress like a nurse, doctor, cop, firefighter, or any real hero in our society! Our day will consist of math games, spooky writing, and reading, and we will end our day with a movie. Thank you to the parents who donated items for the Halloween party. We will need Just a reminder: Students can not wear their costumes to school. Book Clubs start next week! The book they choose as a group will be an AR book, the only book they read at home and school. There will be a daily reading schedule that they must complete each day (this includes the weekend). Students must fill out an item on their thought box page, which will be graded for a reading grade. Sticky noting while reading will help them fill out the thought boxes. I will explain this to them on Tuesday, but I wanted to give you a heads-up, so you know the expectations. Students will take their ELA binder home every night and bring it back to school. I am very excited about book clubs, so please be cheerful at home to keep the engagement alive! Planners: Please sign the planner for Everyday! Math: Unit 2 is on a roll, and students use the traditional US strategy for multiplication. Please practice by playing Top-It on EverydayMathThe homelinks are on Google Classroom.
