Week of 9/25/17 - 9/29/17

Happy Friday everyone! A note came home yesterday regarding Johnny Appleseed’s birthday on Tuesday, September 26. Please make sure you send your child in with a peeled, cored, sliced apple so we can make our delicious applesauce!   It can be any kind of apple.  The smells in the third grade wing on Tuesday will be amazing!!!!

Please make sure your child is charging his/her Chromebook every night. So many are coming back to school and needing to charge them and it's considered homework!! Thank you!

Coming Up Next Week:

Spelling:   Please make sure your child is working on his/her spelling menu activities. They will be due on or before Friday, 9/29. They should complete one activity in each column.  The test will also be on 9/29.


Reading & Language Arts:  This week, we’ll read the fable The Tortoise and the Hare.  Discussions will include: What is a fable?  What is the moral of the story? We’ll also continue to do writing some writing activities this week.

Please remember to keep track of your child’s reading (20 minutes, 20 days) on the pink reading log.  They will turn it in on or before October 1.  If your child is finished, send it in!!   

Social Science:  There will be a short quiz Tuesday on Hemispheres.  A study guide is going home today. We’ll be starting our unit on the history of Downers Grove very soon!




Mrs. Klacza's Math Class:  A pretest is coming home today (in the homework pocket of the binder) and it is due on Tuesday.  This is our study guide.  It pretty much mirrors the test, so I encourage you to go over your child’s answers for accuracy and discussion.  We will go over each and every problem and I will answer any and all questions on Tuesday.  The test for unit 1 will be Thursday.

Important Dates:  
9/26 - Johnny Appleseed’s Birthday
9/27 - Early Dismissal
10/9 - Columbus Day

Have a great weekend!!
