Dear Parents,
Reading Parents: Reading parents will begin this week. I appreciate all who are able to help. I’ve been able to talk to all of you who signed up but one. I’ll keep trying to contact her. The time for our reading centers is from 9:45 to 10:30. Thanks so much! We’re looking forward to you coming.
Spelling Words: Look for spelling words to come home today on a half sheet of green paper. The test will be on Thursday.
Literature: We will read the story The Letter. We will work with setting, plot, characters, the friendly letter format, and solutions of a story.
Science: We will continue our unit on rocks. The students will be discovering more uses of rocks, and learn about igneous rocks. At the listening center, we’re listening to the book Hill of Fire which tells more of how igneous rocks are formed. Thanks for your help in compiling lists of Uses of Rocks. We started to compile a class list today and will continue working on it this week.
For your information, we will be going on an all-day field trip to Red Cliffs and Cedar Breaks on Friday September 24th. Permission slips will come home later this week.
Math: We will continue with patterns, begin symmetry, and work with the addition strategies of doubles plus one and doubles minus one.
PTA Fall Bash: The PTA Fall Bash is tonight! This should be a lot of fun.
I appreciate your help and support!
Sincerely,
Brenda Haight
