Monday, September 28

September Reading Logs will be due on Thursday. If your child lost their copy, you can find one on my web page. Students who do not turn in a log on Thursday will be using their recess time to read to reach their 400 minutes.

We are reading the book "Chasing Vermeer" for our classroom read-aloud. Pentonimoes play an important part in solving the mystery. Today we played pentonimoes on the internet. Your child can find this game at www.scholastic.com/chasingvermeer if they would like to play at home.

Students were given 20 minutes to work on their math homework today. It is amazing the progress students who are studying their Math flashcards nightly are making on Rocket Math. Please continue to study the cards. Students who struggle with multiplication facts also struggle with division, fractions, decimals, etc.

Reading - Read 20 minutes

Specifics for reading groups can be found on Friday's blog.
