Weekly Happenings

Welcome to a new week!! Miss Leek and Miss Varley are going to try and keep 
our webpage updated to keep everyone informed on what is going on in our 
classrooms. Just in case we are unable to update our webpage make sure you 
are writing in your agenda each night! :) 

We are also going to be adding a link so you will be able order books 
from Scholastic online. Make sure you check back on our page so you can order 
online when it is up and running. 


Thank you,

~Miss Varley and Miss Leek

Make sure you are studying your spelling words from your spelling notebook. 
The words are in your agenda.  The words inside the spelling notebook are 
going to be the ones you are tested on Friday! 

*Please sit with your child on Mondays to make a plan for accomplishing 
spelling homework in 3 nights. 

*You should be reading at least 20 minutes each night in order to complete
your reading log!

In Social Studies, we are beginning our Explorers Unit.

In Science, we are studying life science.  We are starting a project on 
animal adaptations. 

We are focusing multiplication in math.  Your child may be showing you new
ways to multiply that are easier for them for now.  While the traditional
algorithm is the most efficient way to multiply, the students are also being
introduced to the partial product method, as well as the distributive 
property.

Please remember to check the website for important information and feel free 
to email us if you have any questions.
