Plays of the Week #2

Reminders for the Upcoming Week

Tuesday 8/25 = Library Check-out

Reading  = This week we have been establishing routines in our classroom.  We thought about how we choose books, what Reader's Workshop looks like, and even reminded ourselves how to pick books that fit us.  We will continue to do this as well as thinking about working together as Readers.  Lastly, on Friday we were about to get to the library for library check out time.  We will be beginning our Reading Log this week so be sure to look for it in the red folders.

Writing = Check out all the writers working this past week!  I was so impressed with how Team Meyer decorated their Writer's Notebooks in order to make it their own.  We are trying lots of different styles in our notebooks this week so be sure to check out your child's Monday and Wednesday when they write at home this week.

Math = We have began Chapter 1 where we explore Place Value.  This upcoming week, we will be thinking about ordering numbers, using place value to round, and working with more word problems.  I was very impressed with how everyone was able to turn in their Math homework this past week!  Keep up the great work!

Spelling = This week we will begin to go over our Spelling routines.  To practice, we will be testing over the Days of the week on Friday.  Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.  Please be looking for the list to come home on Monday and test on Friday.

Content = We will be using a lot of technology this year so this year we are going to be thinking about our Digital Citizenship this week to prepare us.  It is important that we teach our kids how to use technology properly and in the most appropriate ways.
