Please have your child draw a picture or bring in a photo of his/her favorite memory of the summer. This needs to be at school on Tuesday!!!!
This week for spelling, I’ve assigned dictated sentences using some of the top 100 most commonly used words. The last two sentences are for students who have no trouble learning the first 3 sentences. Please work on these at home. The final test will be on Friday.
Two people were there.
This time it may be over.
He said it after that.
My cousin is doubtful and jealous of me.
Your idea is outrageous.
We are working with combinations of 10 (ex. 4 + 6, 7 + 3) and doubles (ex. 3 + 3 or
3 x 2) this week during math. It would be helpful if you could reinforce this at home.
Our goal this year at Forest Ridge is to improve students’ writing. I’d like to encourage you and your child to write together. Write about something you did together during the summer (different from the picture or photo you are sending to school!). Write a topic sentence that states the main idea. Next, use details to make the main idea more clear and vivid. Finally, end with a satisfying conclusion. Writing together encourages your child to see you having fun with writing, and allows you an opportunity to spend time with your child while he/she learns. This is due on Friday.
