NEWS FOR PARENTS!

** NO SCHOOL ~~Monday, January 19th~~Lee/Dr. M. L. King Holiday

 
You have been given a one page list of "High Frequency Words" or "Fry" words to practice for the 3rd quarter.  Your child knows to keep this in his/her Apple Binder.  We are looking for words to be read correctly and fluently~~these are NOT timed.

**Your child will complete the third quarter Reading and Math Pretests on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. 



**STUDENT OF THE WEEK:  Kassie



**READING/SPELLING:   This week we will not have a regular story and spelling words.  We will start next week with our new story and words. 
 
**Students must read AR books at home every single night!
 
 

**LANGUAGE/HANDWRITING:  This week we are reviewing proper nouns.  There will be no language test on Friday.
 
 I am very proud of your handwriting!  Teachers and parents who have seen your work on the wall outside our classroom have complimented your hard work!  :)
 

**MATH 
We will begin our third quarter of school learning how to add and subtract two 3-digit numbers!  Students will learn about geometric shapes, counting money, and telling time.  **Please go ahead and start counting a handful of change on the table at home.  We will start counting quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies.  Also, we are using an analog clock (one with hands) to tell time.  Please also begin practicing telling time to the nearest half hour and quarter hour.


 


**SOCIAL SCIENCE
Students will begin the study of our State of Alabama.  We will learn about our state flag, bird, flower, motto, and locate Montgomery, the capital.
