Dear Room 112 Families, May 15, 2017 wk 34 issue 34
Our second recess fundraiser, the Ray School Walk-A-Thon, is this Friday, May 19th from 10:15 – 10:45. Our goal is to raise $25,000 to allow us to have full staff for recess this school year. Without full recess staff, we would have even less (and less consistent) recess coverage. Please come prepared to be outside and active (hat, sunscreen, water bottle, loose/cool clothing) Reminders:
THIS WEEK IN: WORD STUDY Students will be doing sorting activities throughout the week in their word study notebooks to prepare for their spelling test on Friday. Monday- regular sort, Tuesday- Speed sort, Wednesday- Word Hunt, Thursday- Blind sort, Friday- Glue Sort & Test. READER’S WORKSHOP This week we will read Just Plain Fancy by Patricia Polacco. We will be coming back to this text each day as we read and learn something new from it during the week. We will discuss the meanings of the vocabulary words, identify the setting, characters and story parts in the text. VOCABULARY OF THE WEEK: fancy, plain, shunned, miracle, gossiped WRITER’S WORKSHOP We are moving into persuasive writing this week. Be prepared for your child to be more vocal, provide reasons, and try to persuade you in different ways;) MATH We are in Unit 9. It is our last math unit. This unit focuses on two-digit addition and subtraction and a review. SCIENCE We are recording our observations on our wheat and we are exploring stems in depth. We will begin to look for animals for our classroom terrarium. SOCIAL STUDIES We continue to learn about families around the world.
