Embedded Files
This week will be busy and will certainly fly by with our short days. We have an additional two caterpillars for observation and hatching. It has been such an amazing experience watching the students observe the metamorphosis! This week, we will learn more by reading in our science textbook and making scientific drawings.
In math this week, we will be learning all about exchanging ones for tens, tens for hundreds, etc. This is in preparation for regrouping. I will have the mid-module assessment for you at the Goal-Setting Conferences.
In writing, we will work on small moments for the final week. In reading, we will keep looking for tricky vowel pairs in words.

Nightly Reading Homework
Nightly Reading Homework
The reading log is to keep track of nightly reading at home and is part of the San Jose Sharks "Reading is Cool" program. It is due back at the end of the month. Remember, nightly reading can include independent reading, reading aloud, and listening to a grown-up read. 20 minutes each night is recommended. Students may bring books home from school to read. They can be both classroom and school library books These books come home in a plastic zipper pouch. Please help your children build the habit of keeping school books in the pouch when they are not being actively read. This helps prevent mix-ups with public library books and personal book collections.
