I can't believe August is almost coming to an end. I started the month not knowing your kiddos, and now I feel like I've known them forever! I have such a fun bunch. I even laughed so hard today at one of their stories that I started crying! They thought that was hilarious ;)
THIS WEEK...
We have built up our independent reading stamina to 30 minutes and next week we are getting up to 35 minutes. They have been working on thinking about their reading by making predictions, connections, and asking questions as they read.
In math we started place value to the millions. A sheet came home called Home School Connection. That is not homework, just a way of showing you what we are working on in math. Some of the kids worked on that at home and I could definitely tell the impact it made!
NEXT WEEK...
REMEMBER...NO SCHOOL ON FRIDAY :)
