Mrs. Smith’s Class September 24, 2010
A peek at our week:
This week, we are studying the ending sound blends of –nd and -nk. We read nonfiction books this week and discussed the author’s purposes for writing the story. In writing, we wrote “Guess What” poems. The students described something and the rest of our class will try to guess what they have written about. In math, we are continuing to work on addition. We have been discussing turnaround facts. An example of a turnaround fact is 2+4=6 and 4+2=6.

Conferences
I have sent home some times that are available for conferences with every student. Please be sure to schedule a conference with me. I am looking forward to meeting with every child's family. If we have not yet set up a conference time, please send me a note and we will schedule one.
SMART chart
Hooray! We filled up another SMART chart. As a reward for our achievement, your child may bring in a toy to share (with partners) and play with at recess to school. Your child can bring a toy to school on Monday, September 27. No video games or expensive toys, please.
Wilmore Elementary Parent-School Learning Agreement
There is a blue “Learning Agreement” in your child’s star folder today. Please read and sign this paper by parent/guardian signature. Also, please have your child sign the compact under the student signature. This is an important part of our reading grant and you will be asked in the spring if you signed this learning compact.
