Multiplication and Division

Monday begins our Units on Multiplication and Division. We will be working on timed tests for basic facts (0-12). Students are expected to know these with expert fluency. Flash cards are a great way to increase your students memory.

In Science we will begin our Units of study in Earth's Resources Unit and Water, Weather, and Climate Unit. We are finishing up our moon journals. Please make sure your students have been keeping up with their journals! We have already had a few grades from these. You might want to take a look at these (not all were up to date!).

In Reading we are practicing The Daily 5- We are working on comprehension and fluency on a daily basis. We are spending some time with Patricia Polacco and Leo Lionni. The most important thing we can do is read daily at home (to ourselves and to an adult). We will continue to take 1 AR test a week.

The end of the first 9 weeks is fast approaching! October 22 is the last day of this quarter. Friday, October 26th is a Teacher Planning Day- No School for Students!

Monday, October 29th is our field trip to UNF to watch 2 shows by Slim Goodbody! Remember to pack a lunch!
