Monday

There is a lot coming up in the next few weeks. Parent/Teacher conferences are coming up on October 24th. Parents should have received the information on the schedule. Then, on the 26th, the school will be celebrating Halloween. There will be a carnival that night. Our class will be decorating (drawing on) pumpkins for our art project that Friday afternoon. Students need to bring their own pumpkin and drawing materials. If they would like, they can even bring "Pumpkin clothes" to dress their pumpkin. Today we continued working on multiple factors. The biggest problem is that some students multiply the first two numbers and then add in the third one. We are also practicing the five paragraph essay. Students will write one each week, a paragraph each day. I hope this will help them be comfortable with how essays are supposed to work. Spelling and reading are also being done each day. Please make sure students are reading for twenty minutes each night. I am telling the students that it is their responsibility to make sure it is signed.
