Weekly Update 1

We had a great first week! What a great group of students!  Here’s what we were up to:
Math: This week students took pre-tests to help me determine how to best guide my instruction for each student. We also started our math curriculum on Friday. Off to a great start!
Reading: Students have been doing a great job getting into our routines during reading. I’m excited to begin reading with all of them next week in order to form our first guided reading groups.
Writing: We started working in our composition notebooks this week.  
PBL: We started our first project this week “Selfies on Common Ground”. Ask your student what colors and objects they used to represent themselves in their self portraits.
Supplies: Thanks so much to those of you who have volunteered to bring in supplies for our classroom! We really appreciate it and will put them to good use.
Upcoming: This Thursday is curriculum night. It’s a great chance to learn about our curriculum and policies for the school year. Ms. Fitzgibbon will be making a presentation from 7:10-7:30. Our presentation will be from 7:35-8:05 in our room, 402. I look forward to seeing you there! If you aren’t able to make it, all paperwork will be sent home with you student the following day.
I’m looking forward to a great year! Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
