Weekly Update

 Happy Sunday Parents,

We are down to our last three days before break! We have a fun and exciting week planned for Room 25! Please see a couple of updates and notes below, as well as a look ahead to what we will be covering in January when we return. 

Winter Party:

Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Crawford and Mrs. Mullinax have planned a fun Winter party for us! We will party on Tuesday, December 19th. 

Elf Movie:

I have everyone’s permission to watch the movie Elf on Wednesday! I told the students if they want to wear PJs on Wednesday for our movie they are welcome to!

Multiplication Facts:

Our next unit in math will be the multiplication unit. In this unit the students will solve 2x2 multiplication problems. It would be helpful if before we got there, your child had their multiplication facts to 12 memorized. To be honest, this will make all the future units a lot easier as we make our way into long division and factors and multiples. 

 Focus Areas for After Break:

•  Reading: We will begin our Weather Reports where we put all our nonfiction skills and knowledge to work!

•  Math:  We will begin long division. Please help your child memorize their multiplication facts, this will make it much easier for them in the units to come!

• Science: We will learn about severe weather. 

• VA Studies: We will begin Chapter 4- Colonial Virginia
