Dear Parents,
This week we finished our unit on 3-digit
addition with regrouping. The students did a fabulous job. We also took a test
on number sense to the hundreds. We had fun in math figuring out how big Abraham’
Lincoln’s cabin was in inches, feet, yards, centimeters and meters. This week
we are starting on subtracting 3 digit numbers with regrouping. Your child may
need a little help at home on this concept.
We have been working on a weather unit
and are making a weather book in Science. Our goal is to complete the weather
book and pretend to be a meteorologist and predict the weather in a big city of
the continents we have been studying.
I am sending home word list of the
first phonic principles with some students who have not mastered the first part
of the phonic evaluation. If your child brought one of these list homes will
you please review it with them. If you
get a list we already have gone over it and they did pass it in class, but it
is one of the word patterns they missed on the phonic evaluation.
We are still to working on our Twisted
Fairy Tales. The students have had an excellent week being respectful. We had
the heart light on and they have earned lots of money for their behavior. It is such a pleasure to be their teacher.
P.S. We are
hopping to have a visit from the Leprechaun.
He has visited my
class for 28 years.
