Thursday has come and gone!

Say cheese!
All smiles all the time in Room 138!
What a morning... first a fire drill!
This is our ELMO- We use it everyday- almost all day in fact. When we are writing - your student should be writing in their spiral. We do this to model could academic strategies.
Learning about the Peoples of the Southwest!
We are working hard at Math! This division is not easy, but we have learned to identify the number of steps in a problem. This allows us to complete each step, and that assures we accurately complete each piece of the problem!
Getting ready for Social Studies
Antonio is ready to began our next project!
* Progress Reports came home today. Your student has 4 1/2 weeks to improve their grade- These are simply reports that let you see how your student is doing. I would greatly encourage each of you to check ONCOURSE regularly so that you can keep track of what your student is (or isn't) doing.

* PTA sent home membership envelopes today with students who have not joined yet. Please consider giving a $5.00 donation to this organization. They help us in so many ways- field trips, Cultural Arts, Vision Screening, school supplies, clerical work that needs to be done around the school, etc. It is well worth the $5.00.
* Today at recess, the sun was behind the clouds, there was a breeze and it actually felt like it might be FALL! WOO-HOO for cooler weather!

* Please send a daily snack for your child. We do not eat until 1:00, and it is a long day with out a quick snack break.

*Make sure your student brings their reading book home tomorrow- Our test is Monday. That is a Selection Test, Word Study Test, and a Vocabulary Test.
*Planners should never be blank. Make sure your student is getting their homework done :-) It is the launch for our next lesson, and when homework is not done, it puts your student behind!
See you in the AM!
