Friday, October 27, 2023 Homework

Today we met with our 1st grade buddies in the afternoon for a Halloween craft I provided. We made Halloween wreaths together. The students had a great time!
 
Math - None (Today we worked on division problems that had zeros in the quotient/answer. I had showed them this before, so it was a concept that caught on quickly. All work was done in class and turned in to me for a grade. Please keep practicing multiplication flashcards at home as we will be doing a lot of multiplication in the next few weeks.)
 
Science -  None (Today we read pages 71 - 84 in our books on Isaac Newton before we begin the unit on Force in our text books. We also worked on finishing the fifth page of the comprehension packet. Ask your child what they learned about him so far in todays reading.)
 
Social Studies - None (Today we worked on another 50 states worksheet to prepare for our 50 states test on November 17th. They must spell the states correctly and make sure they are all capitalized too. If not, they will lose a 1/2 point on each one written incorrectly. They will have a word bank on the day of test, so they have to copy carefully and correctly.)
 
Reminders:
 
~ Pizza lunch is served on October 31st in class as the classroom party. If your child does not like pizza, you can pack a lunch on that day. Thank you!
 
- I offer office hours Monday - Thursday if your child needs me to reteach something in Math, Science or Social Studies. Please email me for assistance and we will meet via google meet link. 
 
- I offer afterschool Math group tutoring on Thursday's of every week until 3:15pm. Some weeks we review and some weeks we go ahead and learn the next lessons. We will also work on strengthening our math facts in multiplication. It is $30 per week if you'd like to join. You can come and go from week to week, but it is very beneficial. Contact me with any questions. 
 
- Amazon wish list, if you can donate to our classroom... https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3RS691H76HBK0?ref_=wl_share
 
Upcoming Events:
~ We will have our first field trip on Thursday, November 9th to The Grove in Glenview. We will see LongHouses from the Native Americans and also talk about Pioneers....all lessons we will have finished learning by then. Can't wait for this extra enrichment for the students.
