Dear Families,
I am so excited to get to see my students for a five day week next week! All of the snow, ice and frigid air are out of the forecast, at least for the next week of January.
Due to all of the instructional time that has been missed in January first semester benchmarks in all subject areas have been pushed back until the first full week of February. I will keep you up to date on this information as it becomes available to me.
Next week in Reading we will continue to work on self monitoring for comprehension through fix it up strategies.
In Writing we will complete our book commercials and have them typed online by Wednesday, January 24. In Math we will continue to cover fraction concepts. The students’ Math IA that was scheduled for 1-17 will now be given on 1-24.
In Virginia Studies we will complete our unit on VS6 a-c and take a test on Thursday, January 25. In Science we will begin a unit on Earth, Sun, and Moon by reviewing causes for day and night, seasons, phases of the moon, and tides.
Have a great weekend!
