Tuesday!

Picture Day was today! All the students smiled pretty! :)
Individual retake picture day is October 27th.

Spring classroom pictures are scheduled for January 28th.

Hope you all had a great long weekend! I was so excited to brag on all your children this weekend during my family get-togethers! I of course didn't use names, but I told them all how sweet, thoughtful, and attentive my kiddos are! 
Although today is Tuesday and I don't usually have much time to write since we have 2 meetings, I will write while the kids are silent reading to catch up since we didn't have a Monday! :)

FYI:
Infinite Campus still doesn't have my classes uploaded. When it does there will be grades there for you to look at.  You should have a pretty good idea of what your child's grade is by looking at the graded papers that should be coming home in the Wednesday Folders.

Math: Today we reviewed rounding up to the nearest millions place as well as rounded money. The kids did a great job with this! They were able to be in a small with me, Mrs. Powell, and work in pairs. I can successfully say I met with each student and they could round! :)
HW: Rounding worksheet
*We are going to start Factors tomorrow. It is VERY important your child knows his/her multiplication facts! Please let me know if you need a set of cards to practice with and I'd be happy to get some made for you.

Reading: Reading was cut short today due to pictures! However; we were able to get several Author Study projects presented! I was SO impressed with the groups who went today! I could tell they really used their time wisely, read through the websites I provided, and put a creative spin on their presentation! We will finish the project presentations up tomorrow and begin working on Main Idea.
No HW
*Note~if your child did not have his/her project completed today, I will expect it tomorrow but it will be only worth half the credit. You will receive an email if this is your child.

Science: Students took their Unity and Diversity test today.  We will begin the Energy Transformations Unit next!
No HW

Writing: Today we worked on our first or second event for the Memoir and got into our Writing Groups to share and check for a topic sentence and supporting sentences.
No HW

Have a great night,
