Remember that tommorrow is the Monster Mash! Don't forget if your student would like to dress up they can but it is not a requirement!
The above words have meanings that are part of every day things that we will be working on all of this week. I encourage you to print off the list and once a night at least to go over them with your child. You can ask them to use the words in a sentence and also tell you the meaning of them. By going over the words multiple times and connecting them will real events during the week there will be a great possibility of recall.
For the homework Packet this week I will be sending home reading logs and a book. When the book is finished send it back and I will send another home. Students at this age try to hide that they may not know a word. They will guess, skip over the word or substitute something else for it! That is why I encourage you to let you child read to you! Watch the words they read or they may be so good at hiding their difficulty in reading that you will not know that a word or even an entire sentence might have been skipped! On Friday send the reading log in so that I can see how much has been read. I ask for at least fifteen minutes a night to be read.
The bowling will need your permission slip and $6.00 sent in so that everything can be ready for Thursday. Please go ahead and send it in on Tuesday so that we can know everyone will be able to go!
Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any one thing. Abraham Lincoln (1809 - 1865)
