Thursday

Book orders went home yesterday. Please look through those and see if they can be ordered by Sept. 24th. We are working on our writing skills. Students tend to write, "bare bones," and we are working to put the meat back into the story. We are also working on our multiplication tables and making sure the students know their basic addition and subtraction facts. Until we have those down, higher math is nearly impossible. Please work on these at home, or when you are traveling. One example would be to do the fact family for 8 + 7 If the students will learn these fact families they will feel less frustrated. Also, we have the opportunity to allow students who might be struggling with a specific math concept to go to a class the day before which will help them be prepared for the next day's work. We need your written permission, so if you want to email me here at the school, we will know what you want. Also, it is time to start bug collections for Ms Lu's class. Lastly,the walk-a-thon paper also went home yesterday. Thanks for all you do!
