Monday, November 6, 2023 Homework
This Thursday is our field trip to The Grove in Glenview. Your child may wear there gym uniform and gym shoes. Dress warm incase we have to do some walking outside from one location on property to another. I'm very excited about our first field trip together. They bring their lunches to school and we will eat in the classroom when we return. Thank you.
Math - pgs 255 & 256 (We worked on starting to divide by two-digit divisors today. We started with estimating the quotients. It was a little bit of a rough start, but most did get it. I'm hopefully that by end of week, they all get it smoothly. Please keep practicing multiplication flashcards at home as we will be doing a lot of multiplication in the next few weeks.)
Science - pgs 60 - 65 in textbook and questions, and NO D.O.S. this week (Today we read about what forces are. It is a push or pull that acts on an object. We are very well prepared for this unit after reading about Isaac Newton.)
Social Studies - LongHouses packet, and NO D.O.G. this week (Today we started to read in our Pearl harbor books and answer some questions in our comprehension packets. Ask your child to tell you a fun fact from today's reading. I also passed out LongHouses packets to be done afterwards and if not finished they are homework. This is to prepare us for our field trip this Thursday at The Grove. Reminder about 50 states test on November 17th...Students 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. I have assigned games/quizzes on google classroom social studies for them to play and practice on too.)
Reminders:
~ Tis the season of giving and we are asking for donations for the Thanksgiving Food Drive on Thursday, November 9th. Our class has been given bagged rice to donate, but please donate whatever you can. Your generosity means the world to many families in need.
~ No School this Friday, November 10th
- 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.
