Last Week in Review

Happy Sunday!

We have had a great week! We are finishing up our unit on Georgia regions and will begin learning about Georgia rivers and how the different Native American tribes were able to use the resources and rivers in Georgia. We are going to kick off our Native American Unit with our In House Creek and Cherokee Field Trip! If you would like to volunteer during this field trip, please sign up on Shutterfly!  I will be sending home a study guide on Monday to help prepare students for their Georgia Regions Assessment on Tuesday!

We will also continue practicing our math facts while beginning to learn about word problems and problem solving. We will begin to learn about character traits in Reading and Collective nouns in Phonics/ Word Study!  Our rule for next week is the Silent E Rule. A rule sheet will be sent home on Monday along with practice sheets to help your child understand the weekly rule along with collective nouns.

Our reward day will be on Tuesday! The Owls have earned this reward by collecting compliments throughout the last few weeks! We will be watching a movie and having snacks. I have sent home a note in your child’s HOOT binder Friday with the details!

Don’t forget to look for your students’ weekly progress report update in their HOOT binder on Monday! Please return it with your signature.

Please continue to practice your child’s sight words and math facts with them throughout the week!

Also, the last day to make a Scholastic Book Order for the month of August is Monday, August 29th!  Did you know that by making on-line book orders you help our class earn free books to build our classroom library?  Please help us earn books!

I'm looking forward to another great week!
