Four Weeks Already!?!?!

I can hardly believe we are almost through our first month of school!

I am so enjoying the students - what a fun bunch! We are settling into a good routine and I should be able to start updating more regularly.

Please be aware that the Mustang Award requirements have been updated. These will be coming home in the next week.

Make sure you are working on those math facts at home!

Back to School (a week later!)

Welcome to 5th grade!!!

I was so busy getting ready for you that I forgot to properly update my blog!

As you scroll down and look through the archives you will find lots of fun things and new ways to practice and learn some of the things we will be working on this year.

Important news for this week (the week of August 30) is as follows:

* Spelling sort homework went home for the first time today. EVERY student will participate in my spelling program. It is individualized to your spelling level.

* Math fact notes came home today. You are directed to the right hand side of the blog to find the correct resources for the skill you are working on.

* Remember to continue recording your reading minutes in your planner. You will get a "Caught Being Good" ticket every time you fill your punch card. :)

* Remember to have your planner signed each day.

* The band/orchestra kick off assembly is this week.

Cheers!
