Weekly Notices for Oct. 17 to 21

 Dear Parents,

          This week school will be closed Thursday and Friday.  I will be giving a Writing Test on Monday, Reading Test on Tuesday, and Math test on Wednesday.

          It is important that students get access at home  to clever.com since they need to use it not only for doing assignments in Discovery education, but they will also need it to do additional practice in Edgenuity.  This practice is important in order to prepare students for the winter session of MAP tests in Reading and Math. I was informed that it is now possible to access it on an iPad as well.

       Besides working on Phonics skills daily, I have started students practicing with sets of easy Phonic readers as well a set of ten leveled readers on the topic of animals.  These leveled readers for Unit 1 can also be found on-line in the Ready Gen Reading program on savvasrealize.com.  In a few weeks I will have individual students read these books to the class using the document camera.

         In Social Studies we are working on different types of goods and services we use every day in our community.  In Science we are starting a new unit on Sounds.

        We will be working on the next set of sight words on the right side of the Dolch Sight Word list starting on Oct. 24th and I will be assigning them for homework for review.

Weekly Notices for Oct. 10 to 14

 Dear Parents,

         We are having Mass at 10:00 this Tuesday and this Friday dismissal will be at 12:00.  There will be a Religion Test on Chapter 2 and a Science Test on the topic of Animal Communication this week.  Please be sure to review well the definitions on the Study Guides in google classroom.

          In Religion students are learning about the Blessed Trinity and will be asked individually to recite the Sign of the Cross correctly. 

          In Social Studies we are starting a new unit on goods and services people use in a community.  There will be two homework tasks this week for which students will need to log on to discoveryeducation to view the videos and complete the follow-up assignments.  Once you are on google classroom, you should open a new tab and type clever.com to get access to discoveryeducation or just click on the clever app which has already been set up for your child.

        Progress Reports will be sent home on Friday.  These MUST be signed and returned to class on Monday.  Once I see the signature, students will be allowed to take their progress reports home.
