Tuesday

Today in reading we finished the story, "Sewed Up His Heart." It is a very interesting story. We then reviewed our spelling words. Remember there is a spelling test tomorrow. In math we are talking about what a remainder really means. One problem we did was: If you have 86 students to move in vans with 6 seats each, how many vans will you need? The answer is a surprise to the students because the actual answer is not the answer to the division problem. The quotient is 14 with a remainder of 2. But if you have two students left over, you need one more van, hence the answer, instead of being 14 remainder 2 is 15. Some of the children didn't finish their work and they need to do it as homework. The page is 385 doing problems 3-10. In Social Studies we learned about the different groups of missionaries that came to Idaho. Then the children went to P.E. We are working hard on our A.R. reading. Please encourage your student to take tests on the books they read. Cole has fixed the problem so this should be working at home. Make sure your child is reading books they enjoy. Reading at their level is important to progress, but also reading something pleasant and not as difficult is important to enjoying reading. As the year is coming to a close, we need to thank the parents that come in every week to help. If there are any others who want to come, let me know and we will figure out a schedule for you. Thanks for all you do.
