February 2-6
Hello C3 Families!
ANNOUNCEMENTS
I hope you all had a great weekend!
Tuesday Envelope: Every Tuesday, your child will come home with an envelope of finished work, graded quizzes and tests and announcements. This week, they will come home with their graded Topic A Quiz and Benchmark Unit 5 Week 3 Test. The February Book Review page will be in the envelope this week as well. Please be sure to sign your student's quizzes and review the content with them. Yellow envelopes need to be returned on Thursdays.
OUR WEEK AT A GLANCE
ELA: This week, we will begin Benchmark Unit 6, Confronting Challenges. This unit explores the essential question, "How do we overcome obstacles?" This week, we will read "Rabbit and Coyote" and "The Valiant Little Tailor."
The Unit 6 Week 1 quiz will be on Friday.
Writing: This week, students will work on opinion writing.
Spelling and Grammar: This week we will continue with our weekly Spelling and Grammar trifold activity. These go along with our Benchmark units and will help students practice important skills. Students will have plenty of time in class to work on this activity, but will be required to take it home as homework if they do not complete it.
Math: This week, we will begin Module 4: Foundations for Fraction Operations, Topic B: Equivalent Fractions. In topic B, students use models, multiplication, and division to generate equivalent fractions and equivalent mixed numbers.
We will have a Math Review Quiz on Friday.
Homework: Homework includes Math Apply Book pages, cursive, daily math review and 20 minutes of reading. Please refer to the Homework page on my website to view the schedule. Checking your student’s communicator is the best way to stay updated on homework. I try to stick to the homework listed on the website, but sometimes plans change and the communicator will have the most updated information.
REMINDERS
Please take care of all folders that come home, they need to last the whole year!
Please check and sign your student’s communicator daily
House colors on Thursdays
Looking forward to a great week!
Thank you!
