I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday
This is what we are up to this week... In math we will be concentrating on the 6's tables. At the same time we will be working on the concept of division with 6. Please encourage your child to practice all multiplication facts to the 6's everyday. There will be a timed test on Friday. Just a reminder--there are many links for fun ways to practice the facts on my website. I will also send home some practice worksheets. In science we will continue learning about pollution and conservation (Chapter 8 in our textbook). Your child should be working on their science projects. Within the next two weeks your child will be taking more tests--Star Math, Star Reading, and DeKalb County benchmark tests in all subject areas. These tests are taken in the computer lab. Thanks so much for your support at home! What a beautiful weekend!
I'm sorry for not posting last week...my 89 year old mother fell and broke her hip. I went to be with her in Charleston during her surgery. Thankfully she is an independent, strong woman. Her spirit and determination will certainly help her during the long recovery process. I look forward to spending lots of time with her during our Thanksgiving break. Here is what we are up to this week... In math we will be concentrating on the 4's multiplication table and relating them to the division facts. While we will be working hard in class, I expect children to really study the multiplication facts at home as well. Please see the math page on this website for lots of fun ways for your child to study the facts. If you do not have internet access, make some flashcards and have your child write the facts as much as possible. If you have a smart phone, look for some apps! In science we will continue to work on our pollution unit. I will be sending home the project expectations this week so your child will have lots of time to work on it. The project will not be due until later in December. Great news for my homeroom...we won the spirit night competition once again! Thanks for all your spirit and support--you help make Evansdale a great place to learn! I know one thing...I am thankful for the honor of teaching your children! I hope you all enjoy the Thanksgiving break with your friends and families. |
