It's Another Beautiful Monday!

I'm hoping we all had a nice weekend, even though they go way too fast!

An important reminder: we started guided reading groups last week. It's very important that everyone bring their book home each night and remember to bring it back to school each day. We use those books for guided group reading with me, and we need them daily. Starting today, everyone has a guided reading log in their plastic book baggies which tells you what we read in groups today and what your child's reading homework is.

This week in math, we'll continue our fractions unit by learning what are parts of a whole. In Science, we're continuing our cloud unit, and in Social Studies, we're moving forward with our Important Events in U.S. History lesson. We have fun things planned for that! "We Praise And Thank God - How To Pray" starts are next Religion lesson. This week in writing, we're working on our final author's purpose: writing to entertain. Students will be writing fun stories in their writing journals, and we'll be writing a fun class story together this week about "How To Train A Spider!"

Our spelling test is Friday, and our spelling words for this week are:
before     born     chore     corn     farm     hard     horse     more     part     porch     score     smart

Our extra words are:    family     heard     listen

Thursday we have a staff vs. students volleyball game at 1:30 - we're all ready for that! Have a great Monday!
