Last week we successfully finished our Galileo testing. All of our students did a fabulous job and I am happy with our general scoring. We have a lot of work to do, but we know exactly which standards we need to focus on to increase our knowledge!
This week we will continue working on maps in the classroom. Discuss with your child where they are on the map. It is a difficult concept for children. We start at our school, recognize our town, state, country, continent, and finally the entire earth. We should have a lot of fun working on this. Ask your child the easy way they have learned to remember the directions. Hint: it's a breakfast food!
Scholastic Book Fair is all of this week. You can check it out before and after school with your child. Please continue sending in McKinney-Veto forms and t-shirt money. We will need to place that order soon.
Squirt is doing great! Thanks for all the comments and help with him.
We had all but 3 students complete their homework packets this week. That is awesome. Remember to have your child read and sign their logs for them. Unsigned logs result in not being able to participate in Fun Friday. :(
Have a super week!
