Hi Everyone,
The weather has been so beautiful this week! As it's getting closer to spring, you might want to help your child do some "spring cleaning" with their backpack. I'm noticing some of their backpacks hardly fit in their lockers! It would be helpful to remind them of anything that can stay at home, or of anything that has a place at school.
Reminders:
Please fill out this parent/teacher conference survey. This just helps me better prepare for our conference and make sure that we go over the things you would like to talk about.
Sign up for conferences if you haven’t yet! Let me know if you have any issues accessing the PTC Fast link.
Coming up:
Curriculum:
Math: We'll take our math test this week! Hopefully your child is feeling confident going into the test. Let me know if there is anything we can do at school to help ease their nerves so they can show off all they know on the test. The next unit is on measurement and polygons.
Writing: Our writers will draft one more book as a club, this time comparing and contrasting their animals. I was so excited to see how many students wanted to bring home their writing for this weekend! Many of them chose to write graphic novels during our free write on Friday; be sure to ask them about it!
Reading: We have been doing some BIG research work. Our readers have been asking questions, growing theories, and finding evidence for their theories. Next week we’ll wrap up this information unit and celebrate how much they’ve learned.
As always, please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
Jenny Kocourek
