Monday Memo
March 30, 2015
Dear Parents,
I hope everyone a great weekend! Just a reminder that
there will be no school on Friday for Good Friday.
Our RC book, Misty
of Chincoteague, was finished on Friday. The students RC book for the next
two weeks is a library book of their choice. They have the books and are to
have them tested by April 15th. At that time, I will be assigning
another RC book to them. I truly appreciate them reading at least 20 minutes
each night. That practice is the best way for them to improve their reading
skills!!
In Reading this week, we are beginning a new theme. The
title of this theme is Nature: Friend or Foe. The stories deal with how nature
can really help us or sometimes hurt us. Our first story is entitled “Salmon
Summer”. It is the story of a little boy’s experience catching salmon. It also
talks about how salmon is prepared. We will be talking about the following
skills for this story: Comprehension,
Vocabulary, Direction Following, Outlining, and Multiple Meaning Words. Our
grammar this week continues working with adverbs. Our spelling words are
attached to this memo.
This week in math we are continuing our work with
division. We are dividing with remainders as well.
We are also working on prime and composite numbers and we
are getting into divisibility with numbers.
I sent home the study guide for social studies today. Our
test over the Southwestern Region of the United States will be tomorrow. We
will be working on Science next. More information will be forthcoming on our
Monday Memo.
Have a great week!!
Thanks for all you do to help me with your child’s
education! As always, please call with any questions or concerns!!
Sincerely,
Chris Mallen
