Greetings Families!
It has been another great week of teaching and learning.
In math, we began a new unit on place value. In reading, students identified cause and effect relationships in literary text. Social studies included students identifying land forms and bodies of water on a map. Lastly, science included students observing and identifying how magnets are used in everyday life. Kudos to students for doing their personal best throughout the week on these skills. Please ask your child about their learning experiences.
On Thursday, students had the opportunity to meet Deputy Lawrence from Live PD. They received safety tips and learned about life as a police officer. Students had an awesome time! You may view our photos on class tag.
On Friday, students participated in a bus safety drill. They listened attentively and followed instructions as directed.
Wednesday, October 18th, becomes a full day for elementary students. Thursday, October 19th is a half day for students and is Parent/ Teacher Conference Day. Please sign up for a 15 minute conference time slot on Class Tag. If you have not signed up to receive Class Tag messages, please check your child's binder for their registration form on Monday.
Wednesday, October 25th - Friday, October 27th, students will take CogAt/ Iowa Testing. The Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT) is a group-administered assessment intended to estimate students' learned reasoning and problem solving abilities through a battery of verbal, quantitative, and nonverbal test items. Please ensure that your child is present and on time each day.
You may login in to access your child's reading "Treasures" book at connected.mcgraw-hill.com. Your child's user name and password has been pasted in their binder.
