Wednesday Updates

It was a pleasure meeting with all of you during conferences. I appreciate you taking time to come in so we can celebrate the growth your child is making this year already. Please continue to work on those math facts. These facts are the foundation for our learning in math. 

I apologize for the Daily Homework posting being inaccurate. I have been changing it each week but it won't save. So I deleted it and will add it here in this post.

Homework Schedule October 14-18
Tuesday-Spelling week 4 & Vocabulary Words-Test NEXT Friday on Both
Wednesday- Xtra Math
Thursday-Family Journal due Monday

Spanish spelling & vocab
Friday-Poetry Binder

In math we are working hard on learning about graphs. We have learned about picture graphs, vertical and horizontal bar graphs, and now we are learning about line plots. To finish up the unit we will learn how to take a survey, record with tallies, and use this data to create all the different graphs we have learned. 
In literacy we are working on non fiction text features. So far we have learned about labels, photographs, illustrations, captions, and our new one this week is diagram. If you find any clippings from newspapers or magazines, please discuss the feature with your child, label it, and send it in. Each feature you bring in you can earn 3 horseshoes. Thank you!

Holiday Fall Party
Our fall party will be October 31 from 11:45-12:50. Some of you have signed up for participating. We still need one food from each food group. We are making fruit kabobs, cheese sticks, cut up sausage, crackers, carrots, and gogurts. If you can help out by sending any of these items in please do that! Thank you. We have two parents coming to help out also.

Have a great week.
Mrs. Montes
