More Math Monday

Hello Team 201 Families!

Your kids are at lunch right now. When they get back, we are going to do a bit more math to reinforce today's skills: the value of digits, periods, and comparing numbers.

Today we.....

  • shared our Owls. Each child gave a one minute presentation. They are up on the wall and they look great!
  • read out first Journeys story: Because of Winn Dixie. We discussed flashback, and went over some of the vocabulary words.
  • learned about subjects and predicates. Sometimes they are complete and other times they are simple.
  • launched Day 3 of Esparks training. Today we learned how to take a quiz on Esparks. We will be ready for our first Quest soon!
  • dove into the new Math series. We discussed how each place value increased by 10 as we move to the greater place. We compared numbers.

Tonight at home......
  • Show someone this week's Study Guide.  There is a tab on this blog to access all of the weekly guides.  
  • Begin preparing for this week's Spelling Test. It is on Friday.  Practice at home.
  • Complete the Math homework pages 9 and 10
  • Complete  the Story Mapping and the Prediction sections of the Reading Response sheet. Only do these two sections. Use Because of Winn Dixie.
  • Read for 20 minutes or more, record, and get a signature.

News:
  • 201 will take the fall MAPS test for Reading tomorrow.  This is simple a diagnostic that will help us set the right goals for your child.
  • Open House is September 17 at 6:00 p.m.. I hope to see you there!
