We’re off to a great start! It’s going to be a great year with amazing boys and girls. This week has been full of learning rules and procedures. These will continue to be reviewed over and over for the first 30 days of school to insure the best learning environment and smooth transitions. Please go over CHAMPs behavior with your child regularly and check for any messages and/or behavior notes in their planner daily and initial.
This week I will be assessing each student’s reading to determine their specific level. Each one already has a take-home reader that is to be read each day and recorded on their reading log. As soon as their levels are determined, they will begin reading leveled trade books for reading homework. We will also begin process writing and penmanship. Math will consist of reviewing and understanding numbers. We have begun an author-study of Kevin Henkes and are continuing to read and explore his books and characters.
Thank you for everything you have done and for your involvement. Please don’t hesitate to call or email with any questions or concerns. Also, notes can always be left in their planner.
Mrs. Benson
