Please see the Marathon Challenge information and mileage form from Mrs. Corder, our PE teacher.
Goal for the Week: I will practice math facts for ____ minutes every night this week. (Students have selected their own targets for 5+ practice minutes!)
Announcements:
The Green Gravy Group Challenge Contract: went home in last week’s Friday
Take-Home Folder. Please review it, discuss it with your child and sign
it if you feel this commitment would be a good fit for your student. This is an optional program for responsible,
independent students who are already submitting high quality work on
time and who are looking for an additional challenge.
Paws
for Reading: Students received a “Paws for Reading” sign-up in
their Friday Take-Home folders. This (optional!) program from Scholastic allows
students to sign in and log their reading minutes online to read for
either the Cats or the Dogs, and Scholastic donates another book to charity for
every 20 minutes read!
October Book
Order: last day for October Scholastic book orders (that went home today) is
next Tuesday, October 20th.
We’re continuing Math
Topic 3 Multiplication Meanings and Facts, Re-testing on Math Topic 2, investigating
Energy in science, writing rough drafts of our Titanic stories, finishing our
mysterious story about a stranger, cheering on our classmates in the Variety
Show and exploring visual rhythm in art!
With thanks,
Emily Larson
