Dear Parents, Thursday, Dec. 15th
We have had a great week! The “Sharing through the Seasons” projects have been wonderful! The books the class read were great! They read with tons of expression and the souvenirs were so creative! The projects were really fun!
We also worked on checkpoint testing this week. I was very nervous about the technology part of the testing. Each student had to input their answers into the computer with I-Respond remotes. I was really nervous about how it was going to go…but it was great! The class was so good during the testing! They listened and were patient when I needed a moment to read directions. This is new technology for me and I wasn’t sure how it would go! You have very kind and patient children!
We have so much going on next week! So, I thought I would send out my newsletter early! Take a look:
Reading- We will be finishing our “Sharing through the Seasons” projects on Tuesday.
Monday- Samantha, Billy, Christian, and Lucas
Tuesday- Connor, Christopher, Melanie, and Ashley
Math- We will be finishing up Chapter 12 in math with a test on Tuesday.
Social Studies- We will be finishing up Chapter 5 with a test on Tuesday. The study guide came home for homework tonight. I will remind the class to take the book home for the weekend.
Wednesday- Wednesday will be “Polar Express” day in the room! Students may wear their P.J.s and bring their favorite stuffed animal. We will be taking a ride on the Polar Express so dress warm!
Thursday- We will be having our holiday breakfast from 8:00-9:00 in the cafeteria. Everyone is welcome! Then we will be having our 2nd nine week celebration in the classroom. I think I have enough pop for the party from the last nine weeks. I do need full sized candy bars and someone to pop popcorn for the party. The class can bring in rated G movies to watch during the nine week party.
Then we will all be exhausted and ready for Friday to be off from school! I hope you have a wonderful holiday break! Enjoy your family and rest! Mrs.Alvarado
