I enjoyed sitting down with you all and discussing your fabulous children. Conference week is tiring, but always interesting and enlightening.
I want to thank the parents who have organized and will run our Halloween party today. Thank you, also, to those who will be bringing in yummy treats like sweets and candy!!! Happy Halloween everyone! Can’t believe we had some of the “white stuff” falling!
My son will be getting married in the Seattle area on November 8; therefore, I'll be out of school on Friday and the following Monday. They grow up so fast!! Sniff.....
Coming up this week:
Spelling: No spelling due to the shortened week.
Language Arts: This week, we’ll continue reading the novel The One and Only Ivan. Many students have already finished it and I know many of you at home have read it with your children. What did you think? I absolutely love the ending.
Please check your child’s assignment notebook nightly regarding homework. We’ll continue to work with antonyms, homophones, and adjectives as part of our “Daily 5.”
We’ll take a break from our WOW words; however, our DOL quiz will be on Wednesday!
Social Studies: We will continue reading about the history of Downers Grove.
Science: We’ll continue chapter 9 this week on the water cycle. There will be a graded review (open book/notes) on lesson 2 on Wednesday. Then, on to lesson 2!
Mrs. Klacza's Math Class: This week we’ll continue Topic 3: Using place value to add and subtract. We’ll finish up Wednesday and Thursday and have a pre-test on Friday. The following Monday, November 10, the students will take the Topic 3 test.
Important Dates:
10/31 - Halloween parade & party
11/3 - Day off (for Conferences)
11/4 - Teacher Institute (no school for students)
Have a great 4-day weekend! Mrs. Klacza
