PTA Meeting Tuesday at 6:00.

Just in case you didn't notice the letter that came home last week, Mugshots will have dinner at the PTA meeting for $5.00.  I hope you are all able to come out to the first meeting.  Our PTA does an amazing job for our school. 

Your child brought home a study guide for Science Voc. words last week.  We will have a test on these words this Thursday.

Don't forget to find a way for your child to practice their Math facts.  We will have a practice drill test this week. 

The email issue is still not fixed.  If I don't respond to your email, please send a note in with your child.  I am getting some emails, but not all. 

Story this Week: Henry and Mudge and the Starry Night
Genre: Realistic Fiction
Phonics: Consonant Blends
Comp. Skill: Character and Setting
Comp. Strategy: Monitor and Fix Up
Grammar: Predicates

We will have a Math Test this Friday on Chapter 1 in Math.  Your child will bring home a Review for Homework Thursday night.  Please check it to make sure your child is comfortable with the problems on it.  The review covers all of the skills that will be on the test.  The kids have been doing a fantastic job with this chapter!

The kids are now going to PE with Coach Grant.  Your child is allowed to bring a water bottle to take to PE.  They get pretty hot outside with this weather, so feel free to send one.  You may want to make sure your child's name is on it. 

Look for a map with the seven continents and four bodies of water to come home this week for Social Studies.  Please keep this map as a study guide for a Social Studies test we will have next week.  Your child does not have to know how to spell the words, just where the places are located on the map. 

Wow, we have a busy academic week coming up, but we are ready! Please don't forget to sign your child's reading log after their 20 minutes of reading.  I will give Tuesday night off from homework to make it easier for you to attend the PTA meeting.  Don't forget, 6:00.

We have a project coming up in the near future that requires each child to have about a cup and a half of potting soil.  If anybody would like to donate a large bag of potting soil I would greatly appreciate it.  We are going to make "dirt babies" in Science with our Plant chapter.

Have a super week!
