First, we will be wrapping up addition and subtraction of 3-digit numbers. We will also be working more on Main Idea and Compound Sentences. After we finish those skills, we will be working on Benchmark review.
Secondly, Benchmarks are right around the corner. The dates for those are December 16-17, 2014.
Next, will be starting a STAR testing to see the growth in the student’s reading levels. Be prepared for students to be coming home with more challenging books or books on higher reading levels.
Finally, I would like to mention inclement weather. We are coming up on a time of the year where the weather can impact school. Please make sure I have updated emergency dismissal contact numbers. If your child isn’t a bus rider, then I will most likely be contacting you to make sure there is transportation for your student. It might also be good to discuss plans for an emergency dismissal with your child so that the stress of that event is reduced. Thank you and have a great week.
-Mr. McDannald
