It is Friday!

I can say that I am happy to be back at school after two days training for Common Core.

Today in Language Arts we took our weekly assessments and worked on Nonfiction.
 Homework:
***None

Reminder: Please be sure to make certain that your child finishes all of their weekly homework packet. A parent signature is needed at the top of the cover sheet as well under each nights reading minutes. Next week "Oops" slips will given for missing signatures. This is the only way we know that the story was read to a parent, common core words were reviewed, and spelling was practiced. (I really do not like giving "Oops" :(

Math- Today was Fraction Friday. After completing our minute and grading our homework, we jumped to the floor to work on a variety of fraction skills. We ended the day with some mental math.

Homework:
***None

In Social Studies, we started Chapter 2 today. In this chapter we will review geography skills and discuss the five regions of the United States. It is going to be a fun time!

Until Monday...
