The students are excited about the Tritt-Mazing Race on October 26. All parents are invited to attend. They are also hoping we meet all of our class incentives!
* Extra recess with popsicles and no homework that night *Movie with popcorn (students bring a drink of their choice) and no homework that night * Third grade picnic with a special dessert and no homework that night *Electronics/game day and no homework that night Last year we even added a 5th incentive our class did so well. Students have shared various ways they earned extra money such a lemonade stands, etc. Thanks for helping your child feel like they are contributing! OUR FIRST COLLECTION DAY IS MONDAY! QUESTIONS TO ASK: How are multiplication and division related? How can we use one to solve the other? How would you describe India Opal (the main character in Because of Winn- Dixie)? What is a pronoun? REMEMBER: * The student leadership team is collecting snacks (individually packaged) for our sister school, LaBelle Elementary. *Chik Fil A day is Oct. 18 and order forms are due by the 16th. All proceeds go to Rally Kids (cancer research for children) * ALL envelopes for the Tritt-Mazing Race should come in on Monday even if there's nothing in it. * Please be on time for your conferences I will make sure we stay on time. *Students are dismissed at 12:30 every day next week. *Check See Saw for your child's posts. NEXT WEEK: Math - Students will learn different strategies to help them solve division problems. It is time to start learning multiplication facts. Please help your child practice the 0, 1, and 2 tables. They've learned the properties of zero, one, and doubling for 2s, so hopefully they will learn these quickly. Language Arts - We will continue to use the novel Because of Winn- Dixie to apply reading strategies such as: expanding vocabulary, reading with fluency, studying characters through their traits, and finding the main idea. The writing will focus on how to respond to reading questions in paragraphs. Have a great week and I look forward to meeting with all of you!
