Long Term Project:
We’re beginning our study of Salem History this week. I’m sending a list of project ideas to be completed at home. I’d like for your child to choose among this list of projects or create a project idea of his/her own. Fill out and turn in the sheet titled “Salem Project Learning Contract” by May 19. By June 9, all projects should be completed. We’ll be sharing the projects in class beginning June 9.
*Read 30 minutes at home each day. The bookmark needs to be filled out and returned. Ask your child to retell important parts of the story that were read that day.
Math:
* Multiplication problems—Have your child continue to work with the multiplication flashcards that you made last week. Practice and memorize a few problems each day. Keep reviewing the ones learned from the previous day. Work everyday for about 10 minutes.
