I hope you all enjoyed your long weekend. It was nice to see so many of you for our Valentine's parties last week. Special thanks to our room parents for coordinating such memorable events for our kids.
This week we will be focusing on the following content:
Reading: Many changes have been made to our reading conference schedules. Please check with your child's teacher if you have any questions.
Math: Second grade- we are wrapping up our work on unit 8, Fractions. We will review next Monday 2/23, and test Tuesday 2/24. Third grade will be continuing Unit 7, Multiplication Fact Power and Parentheses in a problem.
Fast: We will use this short week as a review for both FAST concepts and spelling- no new words/test this week.
Writing: We will be assessing expository writing with the prompt: "Is it hard to be a kid? Why or why not?"
Social Studies: We will be introducing the unit "What are the public services in our community?" as well as emphasizing Presidents' Day/history of Washington and Lincoln. The month of February is also Black History month!
Wordly Wise: No new units this week
The second trimester grading period ends this Friday. Expect report cards to go home next Friday, 2/27. Conference sign ups will be rolling out through individual teachers. Please contact your child's teacher regarding specifics, or if you have any questions!
Have a fantastic week!
