The Tardy Bell rings at 8:35 a.m. this year. We start each day (school wide) with a silent reading time. Your child needs to always have a library book, book from home, or a room book to read. We are all reading and enjoying it very much.
CONTACT INFORMATION FOR ME:
Please feel free to call the office ( 731-3652 ) and leave a message; or email me (not BY SCHOOLNOTES BUT AT dnester@rcps.org ) about any question/concerns about your child.
I usually check email before students arrive in my class at 8:30 and again after school around 3:20. If something needs my immediate attention--PLEASE send a note with your child. He/she can give it to me first thing that day.
LUNCH: 12:05-12:25 If you wish to join your child for lunch, please call the cafeteria, or have your child let me know and I will turn you in on our lunch count.
PLANS BELOW ARE FOR May 5- 9,2008
HANDWRITING: We continue to practice our best manuscript. We will be doing most all writing in cursive.
SPELLING: The focus this week is "words with wh and w beginnings ". The test will be on Friday. If there is a change, it will be noted on the asssignment sheet early in the week. The new list will be given out each Monday to students. It is to be kept in the KEEP section of their binder for use at home during the week.
LANGUAGE/GRAMMAR: We continue working on adverbs and capitalization. We are also working on pronouns,and prepositions. We are always reviewing past skills.
READING: The new story for this week is"Leah's Pony ".
The skill is " plot ". The vocabulary words and the skill for the story are found at the beginning of the story in the textbook. Also the spelling words for the week are located at the back of the reading book. Your child is welcome to bring home the reading text each night as long as it is returned daily for class use.
MATH: We are working in chapter 23 on patterns.
Please continue to review all math facts!
Facts must be MEMORIZED!!! Practice, practice!!
It would be helpful to have flash cards for practice. Also use the math sites below or on McHarg portaportal.
