Monday Update 9/8/2014

Good afternoon Parents,

I hope everyone’s weekend was relaxing! Here comes my weekly update!! J

1.       This week we have a spelling test on Friday, as usual. The spelling worksheet will be due on Friday as well.
2.       Our Chapter 2 math test will be on Wednesday. Tomorrow we will complete a secondary review. This review looks very similar to the test, but with different questions and data. The following information will be covered:
a.       How to read a picture graph
b.      How to read a tally table
c.       How to read a bar graph
d.      How to read a frequency table
e.      How to read a line plot
f.        Applying data to all types of graphs
g.       Answering word problems about data
3.       Please check in with your child in regard to school supplies. Some students are in need of glue, scissors, etc. (some of these items were not purchased at start-up and/or already need replacing).
4.       Please remember that reading is MUST for all students. If you attended our Parent Meeting last week then you may recall our conversation about the benefits of reading. Please encourage your child to be consistent in their readings. They are responsible for taking a book home each night, and bringing it back to school. I have already begun to award negative DOJO points for not having a book and/or not reading a book.
5.       Also, some important school dates are coming up:
a.       Thursday, September 18 – Early Release – 12 p.m. pick-up. There is no after school programming on this day.
b.      Thursday, September 25 – No school
c.       Monday, September 29 – Picture Day for all students (Look out for the purchase form going home soon!)


Let me know if any questions arise throughout the week!! J
