January 30 Update…

The kids are doing a great job and working hard to earn points on our new “Bravo Board”.  The kids are learning to work as a team with the kids at their table.  At the end of the week we will tally points to see what table is working best together and will get to display the “Bravo Flag” at their table.

  • Our Valentine party will be on Friday, February 13 from 12:00- 1:00.  Feel free to stop by if you can!
  • We will be opening Valentine cards in the morning before the party.  Your child may send in their valentines any time that week.
  • Please have your child bring in their 100 day project on February 10.  Your child will be sharing their projects with the class.

Reading

We will complete our unit called “Nonfiction Readers Learn about the World.” We explored nonfiction text and compared multiple books on topics students wanted to learn more about.  The kids enjoyed doing nonfiction reports with their 4th grade buddies!  See pictures below!

Math
We are going to continue to talk about place value and how it helps us compare two digit numbers larger than 20. We are also working on story problems with teen numbers. Please continue to practice addition and subtraction facts at home.
Social Studies
We will begin a unit called, “Me on the Map.” Your child will learn about maps and globes and locate where they live on a map. Your child will need to know how to write his/her home address. Please begin to practice this at home.
