Weekly Newsletter for 2/21/20

Dear Room 4 Families,

Thank you to the chaperones that came with us to San Francisco for our field trip to the Exploratorium today. Your child had a lot of fun discovering the exhibits and exploring the museum with Room 5 students. Your child also enjoyed listening a story from Ms. Dahila for our African American Read In Day.

As a reminder, next week is a minimum day week for assessments with dismissal at 1pm.  Please arrange for your child’s after school pickup accordingly.

This Week in English Language Arts/Writing…

We have been working on ir/er/ur blend words, -ed and -ing suffix, and identifying character traits. I have been assessing students and have not been pulling small groups to work with this week. I will resume our guided reading when assessments are complete.

Your child has been working on completing the math benchmark test for trimester 2. We have been reviewing the concepts and skills that were covered over the last trimester before we take the test.

We have been working on reviewing the second half of the words we have learned and doing various activities to practice our vocabulary, grammar, and sentence writing. Our class is also reading animal riddles and solving them as well as writing our own.
