Proud Dad’s Dash:
Bring lunch for your child and plan on eating with them in the
cafeteria during their lunch time- 11:45 to 12:25, according to the WAG. **We
are not the first lunch of the day. This means there will be parents of the
first lunch time slot at school and the parking is very, very tough. Be
prepared and give yourself time. You will have to wait until 11:45 to go into
the cafeteria, so don’t arrive too early. You will wait outside the office
until the appropriate time.
CONFERENCES: Click the sign-up button at the TOP RIGHT of the blog page (you must view the web version of the blog if using a mobile device) and choose your child's homeroom. There is one slot per student so please pick the time that best fits your schedule.

Language Arts: In our reading, we are learning to take charge
of our own comprehension. We are also continuing our writing work on
small moments and narratives. We are also working on envisioning scenes
from our reading and trying to write in a way that allows our readers to
envision our writing. We also started reading “Stone Fox” as a class and
we are enjoying it! Finally, in our independent reading time, we are
using all of our reading skills to help us improve our reading stamina.
We are working hard!
Social Studies: We just completed our first unit on social
scientists. We will re-visit social studies soon!
Science: We love our tower garden!!! All of our
seedlings are all in and we are excited to watch them grow in the tower garden
over the next few weeks. Mint was transplanted from soil to our garden
and we are making careful observations as it makes the transition to the
aeroponic garden. We share this garden with other classes who will put
the finishing touches on it this week! We are having the best time
learning what successful scientists do!
***Often we post things on our class SeeSaw accounts as well on
our Google Classroom accounts. Ask your child to show you what he/she has
done so far!
