We're off to a GREAT start!!

I enjoyed getting to know your child last week.  This week we will continue talking about being positive and kind to others.  We just finished reading Have you Filled a Bucket Today? We are also reading a book about bullying called The Hundred Dresses.   

Next week:
Character Focus-  Being kind and accepting others
Math-Number Sense (Bonding to 10, 100, & 1000, skip counting, and Place Value)
Science-Magnets & Electricity
Social Studies-     

Please continue to help your child be successful in 5th grade by:

-It is very important that your child reads 30 min. every night to improve comprehension and fluency and hopefully gain a love for reading.

-Check your child's assignments and review homework to see if it is correct.

-Sign homework logs every night.

-Help your child pass off math facts in 5 minutes. (add, subtract, multiply, divide)

-Look for progress report slips every Friday.

-Book orders are due on September 7th.
