Parent/Teacher Conferences

Thank you to everyone who was able to come for Parent/Teacher Conferences today! I enjoyed getting to see all of you and discussing your student's progress and goals for next quarter!

This week we continued our study on Weather.  On Tuesday we were able to do a fun experiment where we learned how rain is made.  In Writing, we focused on the past tense.  We learned that when we start a story in the past, we need to keep the whole story in the past.  For Bible, we learned about the visit of the Wise Men and how Jesus was protected from those that wanted to hurt Him.  We studied how Jesus is King and because of that He deserves to be worshipped.  In Math, we continued to work on telling time, adding money, and using base-10 blocks to write numbers in different ways.  For Reading, we focused on making predictions about what would happen next in the story.  We had lots of fun making predictions and then seeing if we guessed correctly.

Important information for this next week:

1. On MONDAY morning we will have our Sweet Potato Digging Field Trip. Students should wear their Friendship Friday T-Shirt and bring a shovel.  They can also bring gardening gloves and a hat if they would like.

2. Walkathon is quickly approaching! If you or your student would like to participate please fill out the form that was sent home a few weeks ago and send it in to me.  If you have any questions or are in need of another form please let me know.

3. Our Spelling words for this week are: hold, those, hope, know, coat, spoke, over grown, froze, older, obey, goal, hundred, high

4. Our Bible Memory Verse for this week: And a voice came from heaven, "You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased." Mark 1:11
