Weekly Update

  Hi Everyone!

I hope your weekend was amazing! Once again, I spent mine at sports games and trying to catch up with my life in between games. Please read below for some updates for the week to come!

Tiger Rising Permission Slip:

If you haven’t already filled out the permission slip for your child to watch Tiger Rising, please do so by the end of the week. I plan on watching it the last week in October. If I do not have permission for your child to watch it, they will not be allowed since it is rated PG. I will make other arrangements for them to visit the library or another classroom during the movie time. Here is the permission slip again if you need it.

Thursday and Friday

I will be out Thursday and Friday of this week. I am headed to a wedding in Cancun for the weekend! I have secured Mrs. Combs as my sub so I know the students will be in great hands! Mrs. Combs has subbed for me many times in the past, so she knows my classroom rules and routines. Mr. Lightweis and Mrs. Hani will be there still, so I have no doubt that the week will end smoothly. I will be telling the students tomorrow, because I never want them to be surprised when I am out.

No School:

There is no school Monday, October 24th due to a holiday. 

Focus Areas for the Coming Week:

• Writing:  We are learning the structure of Writer’s Workshop and talking about what makes a good writer. 

• Math:  We will work on Subtraction. The students will be able to find the differences of numbers 999,999 or less. 

• Science:  We will wrap up our first Science unit,  Virginia’s Natural Resources.

 

As always, please reach out if you have any questions or concerns. I am looking forward to a great week!
