Announcements
Your conference confirmation day and time came home last week and is written again in the Friday folder. Please make every attempt to reschedule as soon as possible if you need to. I look forward to meeting with everyone next week!
We will have our Valentine's Day celebration next Tuesday from 2:15-3:00. Thank you to everyone who volunteered to help with the party! Students will be exchanging Valentine's earlier in the day. They should bring their Valentine's and box (if they made one) on Tuesday morning. Please use the list I sent home to make sure every student has one. If you need another list, just let me know.
In the Classroom
We continued to study multiplication facts this week. We focused on the factors of 4, 6, and 7. Here are students practicing their 6 facts through a dice game.
Students are publishing their expert non-fiction books! We are practicing neat handwriting, adding in photogrpahs, and diagrams, and adding other special touches to make our pieces interesting to the reader. Here is a sneak peek at some of the pieces.
We used some of our reading time this week to study famous African Americans. We went on a gallery walk through our school to see photographs. Each student wrote down the names of people they were interested in learning more about, and then we used iPads to research.
We started our next Science unit, Health, this week. Students reviewed healthy eating habits they had learned with Mrs. Zapata in December. We discussed MyPlate and went on a webquest to explore the MyPlate website.
