NEWS FOR PARENTS! 


***Don't forget to send $5.00 for your Apple Binder AND $10.00 for class shirt!


We had a fantastic first week!  I love having your child in our class.  We are a "family" and are learning to:  Respect Others, Respect Ourselves, and Respect Property :)

Wow... This week has already been pretty hectic.  A few things for you to know:
*Parents, please send all paperwork and supplies by Wednesday!  I need all of the pertinent forms you took home for open house or when your child enrolled and came to our room. 
*Your child brought home a blue Homeroom letter explaining details about homework and reading passages.  PLEASE do not lose this. 

All children need supplies, including zip bags, headphones, and folders when you can find them.  Please do not give up.  We must have folders to stay organized.


**STUDENT OF THE WEEKNathaniel
 

Remember to put your child's name, phone number, "E. Boyer" and lunch number on checks.
 
Put ALL MONEY in a zip bag or envelope telling what it is for.  Children do not remember.
   
***Please join our PTO!!! We need YOU. Membership is $10.00. Let's show all the other classes that we are the BEST when it comes to PTO participation :)

**READING/SPELLING  Our story this week is “Iris and Walter."  We will read this story, as well as other stories and poetry, to reinforce the skill for this week : Character and Setting.
Read "Iris and Walter" at home this week.  See the "Homework" letter for information.  Please practice Spelling words AND SENTENCES every night at home! We will check words at school daily.  (The only night we do not write Spelling words is Wednesday night... That is up to parents!) Spelling test will be on FRIDAY.
 

**There are two parts to doing homework: Doing the work at home, and returning it in the homework pocket of your apple binder. 
 
 
**LANGUAGE/HANDWRITING
We will learn to identify and write good sentences this week. Students are learning to use their best handwriting. We will write our first and last name and the date on our papers. I am so proud of your effort! 

**MATH
We are learning about "making ten" and odd/even numbers.** Use addition flash cards, games and computer activities to reinforce addition facts. 

**SOCIAL SCIENCE
We will learn about urban, suburban, and rural communities, and how they are the same/different.
