Happy Terrific Tuesday

Thank you for the notes regarding Mid-terms.  I am so glad you are taking an interest in your child's education.  As I talked with the kids, there are 4 1/2 weeks for them to bring their grades up  before report card time.
Heritage Day-I have set Heritage Day for Friday, October 10th.  Students in my reading class are to bring something to share with the class that is a display of their culture/heritage.  Please fill out the note that went home with your child today so I know that you are planning for this activity.  Please return these to me by this Friday, October 3rd.  Thank you.
IXL math computer program-students were given lots of standards to practice today in addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, place value, decimals, and patterning.  Please see to it that your child practices some of these skills on a nightly basis for at least 20-30 min.  This is only going to make them more successful at math along with the math instruction in the classroom.
I can tell who is practicing by the reports I get so if you want to impress Mrs. Hankins-practice-practice!!!!!
Mrs. Neese came to us today and shared with students the story of Rachel's Challenge.  Students are now ready to fill up the front bulletin board with the "paws-itive" choices slips.
Today we did a Geography Challenge in Social Studies.  Ask your child which 2 states in the US are put into an inset map and why.  If they can tell you, write the name of the states in the planner.
KIDS IN MY ROOM FOR READING-REMEMBER TO RETURN THOSE READING CALENDARS FILLED OUT AND SIGNED!!!!!!
Have a great night.
