Spelling City

Hi everyone!! I just joined this site called “Spelling City.” We will be using it during our Daily 5 time, however, students may use this site at home to practice. It teaches the words, has games, and even spelling tests. It is definitely worth checking out!

Message from Miss Biange

Destination Imagination-  (all grades) Each grade level has an opportunity to participate in DI!  If you would like to “coach” a team, please let me know.  We had a fifth grade parent who was in charge of the entire program last year and she did a fantastic job organizing DI for LPES.  Please let me know if you would like to be the contact person (or you know someone who is interested). http://www.idodi.org

 Thanks!

Homework from Monday

Hi everyone – I did not get to check homework today. So sorry! Please leave HL 1.12 in the Lion folder. THANKS!!

p.s. Book orders are due tomorrow!

New Reading Homework!

A new reading log was sent home today with students. There is a note attached. Just briefly, here are some points to note about the log.

• Students should read for at least 10 minutes a night
• They may work on one box more than one night (no more than 3 nights please) as long as it is initialed twice
• Color the box purple for this week and blue next week (students may just check it off with the color)
• Not all boxes should be done at the end of the 2 weeks: students should have about 6 boxes finished by the end of the 2 weeks

Hope this helps. We went over the reading log as a whole class! Have fun

Maps Test

Hi Family,

I just wanted to let you know that student notebooks went home today. This should help with the studying . There are also maps in the notebook to help. Please make sure the notebook returns each day!! We will be adding to it almost daily. Also, I have added a study guides page with links to both the study guide and the map. Hope this helps!

Happy Monday!

Hey everyone! Today your child received a study guide for our Maps test on Friday. We have gone over most of the information on the study guide. Please review it nightly with your child. Also, please sign the study guide so I know it has been received. Thanks so much! Miss Daly
