Hello Parents,

Book Report and Poem packets were sent home last week.  If you haven't seen them yet, please ask your student.  Due dates are as follows:

Sept 14 - Last day for Poem Recitation in class

Sept 21 - Last day to turn in Book Report and Reading Log

*If the packet has been misplaced, you can find the same information if you click on the "Long-Term Assignments" tab at the top of this page. Thank you! 

What we are doing in Room 13 this week:

Spalding - Spelling words will be entered into our spelling notebook again this week.  You should see notebooks coming home each evening. An example of what your child's words should look like are at the bottom of this page.  

Grammar - We will be finishing our unit on capitalization.  We are learning some fun grammar songs in class. 

Writing - We are learning how to write a written summary from the key-word outlines made in previous weeks.

Math - We are well on our way in our new math books! We will be working on Module 2: Addition & Subtraction of Whole Numbers.  We will start sending home the lesson worked on in class as well as the homework for the day.  We are hoping this will help you understand what is being taught and able to help your student if needed.

Also, this year we are offering test corrections on math tests for students that score below 75%. Here are some of the details:

● For accurate corrections, students will earn 50% of the original points back, up to a maximum grade of 75 for the test.

● Test corrections must be completed no more than 2 school days after the test has been returned to the student.

● Test corrections must be completed on a separate piece of paper and written legibly (if the teacher cannot read it, no credit will be given).

*Students are not required to make the test corrections. 

Literature - We will begin reading The Ninth Nugget as a class and also continue reading fluency with partners.

We have a wonderful class! Please let me know if you have any questions. 

Thank you,

Christi Jensen
