The weather has been a bit crazy lately! We’ve had extreme cold, snow, and now warming temps!! Please make sure your child is dressed accordingly for recess. I’m so glad we’re entering the final week of February. As mild as this winter has been, I’m so ready for Spring!
Is there a parent who would be interested in helping me out by classifying my library? A few weeks ago, all the students were tested to see what their Fountas and Pinnell reading level was. That’s been accomplished but now I’d like a parent to find the “F & P” level for each book and mark them all accordingly. If you could give up a little of your time, maybe one morning or afternoon a week, I would greatly appreciate it! Email me if you are interested. You would be trained :)
Coming up next week:
Spelling: Six spelling activities (2 from each column) need to be completed by Thursday, 3/3. The test will be on 3/3 as well.
Reading & Language Arts: We have been working on our animal teeth argumentative piece this week, finishing up in the coming week. We’ll then study immigration and culture, finishing up the unit with our annual Culture Day project. Information will be coming home early next week.
We’re continuing fiction novels this week during Read to Self. Students are required to complete a book report as they did with their mystery novels. These will mostly be done in class during our daily stations. The final products are due on or before March 1.
February reading logs are also due on March 1.
Social Studies: We will be continuing our Chicago unit this week. We’ll focus on the early history of Chicago and the first Chicagoans.
Science: We are on hiatus!
Mrs. Klacza's Math Class: Thank you to those parents who came in for a math conference with me. It was wonderful getting to know you.
Our Unit 5 assessment (multiplication & division) will be on Thursday, 2/25. Our x5 test will be on Friday, 2/26. We’ll then move on to Unit 6 focusing on geometry.
Important Dates:
