Dear
Parents:
Continue the great work in reading with your child for 30 minutes each
day and recording it in the RAH folder. Possibly set a goal for earning
money by reading or doing homework to donate to the Heifer Project to support
our school in the effort to help others.
The first part this term in reading, we’re working on character
qualities, point of view, cause and effect relationships, recounting stories,
theme, moral and lesson, sequence of events, and compare and contrast.
Falcon Fast Facts are now on the
RAH folders. Have your child work on
Xtra Math or flashcards (These were sent home on Monday.) for a few
minutes. Mark your initials by Falcon Fast
Facts on the RAH folder each day.
Please continue to have your child use SumDog. If you need the
password for SumDog or Xtra Math, please let me know.
Family
Writing: Write about the Heifer Project.
Explain the importance of the project and how it will help people. Tell
about what you are doing to help support our school effort in helping others in
the world. Include a beginning, middle, and ending. Working and 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.
Scholastic Book orders are due by February
25. You can order online.
