June 1, 2009

Our goal this year at Forest Ridge is to improve students’ writing. During the week, I’d like to encourage you and your child to write together. The topic this week is to write about what your summer plans are or what you’d like for your summer plans to be! Be sure to include a beginning, middle, and ending.
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. Please have your child bring the finished writing paper in by Friday.

We’re finishing up a unit on fractions in math. Following a recipe, using the measurement tools, is a fun way to practice math together. Try halving or doubling a recipe!

Reading logs are due on Thursday.
