Newsletter 11/26
I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving and enjoyed the nice long weekend. I spent time with family and friends and did a little Christmas shopping.
Here’s the news and homework of the week:
Spelling: Lesson 11 Standard group does p. 44-46. Challenge group does p. 47 (including the writing) and three activities from the challenge checklist. The activity list can be found on a previous post. I also keep a paper copy in the classroom for reference. Challenge words are: cords, blindfold, bride, throat, scarecrow, committed, fourth, height, generally, intelligent.
Reading: We began a new novel study today. We’re reading The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. Just a couple reminders - students should continue to read nightly and record minutes on their reading record for November. Also, they should continue working on their AR goal for the second quarter. I entered the goal into the program, so if you have access you should be able to monitor where they are at.
Math: M - L42 T - L43 W - L44 Th - L45 F - Test and worksheet
Grades: I will be posting some more grades in the next day or two. Please check them about once a week or so to see if there’s any late work. I also try to send out email reminders when I have the time.
Have a “grate”ful week.
