November 25 - 29

LA - everyone should be finished their first / sloppy copy of the descriptive report by Wednesday.  We'll work on revising and hand in our good copies by Friday Monday.

Math - please practice multiplication facts from 1x1 up to 9x9.  Students have learned strategies to figure out answers, but ideally these facts will become automatic.  We've also talked about multiplying by 0, 1, 10, 100, etc.


Report cards will be coming home on Wednesday Thursday afternoon.  Please sign and return the envelopes as soon as possible.

Two neat websites we looked at this week:

This one: Create your personalized food guide lets you do just that.  You enter your age (and gender, not that it matters) and then choose foods from each group that you like.  The site will then make you your very own food guide which you can print or save.  Pretty cool.

This one: Ghost Blasters, lets kids practice multiples for times tables.  You can set it to be anything that's a multiple of 2 (2x __ ) 3, 4, right on up.  There is a game for adding as well, here.

Friday is feel good Friday, wear your jerseys and get ready for some staff-vs-students sports action!

Our class will be singing Carol of the Bells in the Christmas concert this year.  Click for a copy of the lyrics we'll be using.  Practice lots, we'd like to be able to do it without a paper copy!
