Learning Objectives:
Math: Students will represent fractions greater than zero and less than or equal to one by using concrete objects, number lines, strip diagrams and pictorial models.
On Monday, please check your child's GREAT Tiger folder for their weekly math homework. It is due back to school by Friday.
ELAR: Students will ask and answer questions, explain the author's use of sound and literary devices, and identify text and graphic features. We will work on monitoring comprehension and will make adjustments to improve understanding when needed.
Date Change! We will take our Module 6 Assessment on Thursday, February 5. Please start reviewing with your child now. This will help set your child up with strong study skills for the future.
How many nights per week should my child read? 6-7!
Science: Students will compare and describe day-to-day weather in different locations at the same time, including air temperature, wind direction, and precipitation.
Social Studies: Students will learn about the physical characteristics of places, including landforms, climate, and natural resources.
Important Dates:
Please have your child wear valentine-ish color/attire on Monday, February 2. We will be taking pictures to use for a craft during our Valentine's Day party on Friday, February 13 from 2:00-2:50.
Your child may begin bringing his/her decorated valentine boxes to school on Monday, February 9. Please make sure your child's name is easy to see and that treats can be placed inside with ease.
Your child's homeroom teacher will be sending home a list of students that are in your child's class. If your child is passing out valentines we kindly ask that everyone in the class receives one in order to avoid hurt feelings. We appreciate your help in this matter.

Absences/Ride Changes
If your child is going to be absent for any reason, please be sure to email your child's teacher, Ms. Sierra sierra.salter@gcisd.net and Nurse Katy katy.faught@gcisd.net. It's important for all of these staff members to be contacted in order for your child's attendance to be entered in correctly in Skyward. Thank you!
When making ride changes, picking up students for appointments and absences, please email both Sierra Salter (sierra.salter@gcisd.net) and Paola Cervantes (paola.cervantes@gcisd.net) in case one of them is out of the office.
Breakfast, Snacks, and Water
Please be sure that your child eats a good breakfast before school. We start our day as soon as they walk in the door. Please send a small (peanut-free) snack and refillable water bottle with your child each morning.
Chromebooks and Headphones
Please be sure your child has either a working set of earbuds or headphones that can be left at school. We need them for the work that we do with technology. We kindly ask that you avoid wireless earbuds/headphones. They do not work well with Chromebooks. Also, please help remind your child each night to charge their Chromebooks!
Birthdays
Birthdays are special! We will celebrate your child's special day by singing in our classroom. You may send in small treats like pencils, erasers, stickers, etc. if you choose. Please refrain from sending in any food items. If you do send in any food item, it needs to be individually wrapped with the nutrition label.
