Happy February!
Here are some activities that are happening in our classroom this month.
In Math, we are working on long division and measuring angles by degrees. We will be using protractors to do this. Also, I am happy to report almost everyone has a workbook for math this semester. This will really help the children in math. Please contact Mrs. Wilson if your child does not have one. (Journal 2 math) Special thanks to Mrs. Coletti for helping our class get the math workbooks!
In Reading, your child may attend a different classroom depending on their reading abilities. If your child is in my class, we are starting to work on the book, Call it Courage. We will study comprehension, vocabulary, foreshadowing, and learning about a different culture.
In Spelling, our class has a paragraph dictation test every Thursday. Therefore, homework on Wednesday is always a copy of the paragraph to study. Please be sure your child knows the paragraph. On Friday we have a word test.
In Language, we are learning about adjectives and ideas for writing.
In Science we will finish up Magnets and Electricity and move on to Weather.
In Arizona, we are in chapter 7, which is about Arizona and the mining boom.
We could really use some baby wipes to clean the room if you can donate these!
