Hello!
Thank you all for your participation in my data collection. I have had a great time introducing my students to blogging and allowing for them to communicate what goes on in the classroom home to you! With that said, here is how communication will look for the rest of the year. With my maternity leave approaching quick and trying to make it as easy as possible for my substitute teacher, I will be in charge of communication information home to you. I will start blogging on my weebly site again, click the link here: Spohn Superiors to get to my site. Your child's blog will be used more like a portfolio of work completed in class. This will be done randomly throughout the rest of the year, I will inform your child that it is their responsibility to let you know when their blog is updated. This way, when I do leave on maternity leave, my substitute will be able to use my blog/email to communicate happenings home to you.
So here is my first, official blog back to you!
Reading: We are working on realistic fiction, theme and context clues. We will be taking this week's comprehension test together on Thursday instead of independently.
Spelling: Test on Friday. Google Spelling is Due by 8:30 Friday morning. Reminder that if your child does not have a way to get it done at home, they are more than welcome to stay in from either morning recess or reteach to complete their assignment.
Winter Benchmark: On Wednesday of this week we will be taking the FAST Reading test. On Thursday will be the FAST Math test. These tests are designed to look at a student's individual growth. For my students going to Science Fest on Thursday, they will be completing their FAST Math on Friday when they return.
Math: Today we were introduced to complementary and supplementary angles Complementary angles are two angles that when added together their sum equals a 90 degree angle. Supplementary are two angles that when added together equals a 180 degree angle. There was no math homework tonight as they finished it all in class.
Science-- Test Tuesday of next week.
Social- Test Wednesday (I will confirm that with Mr. Feldewerd)
Yearbooks ordered by February 10th.
Early Release: Jan. 17
No School: Jan 20
Absent Students: Thank you for letting me know your vacation dates and planned absences prior to your vacation! This makes planning so much easier for myself and the student.
My goal is to assign the majority of the work they will be missing ahead of time. However, assignments that I know are going to be challenging or need more guidance from me, I will hang onto until after they return from vacation. This is for reading and math! I will get an idea of what Science and Social Studies expectations are.
As always, questions or concerns send them my way!
