Week of 5/8 - 5/12

Supplemental Online Helpers
  • Parents, don't forget to log onto GreatMinds. Remember that Homework Helpers and Parent Tip Sheets are provided for each module that is covered in class and the lessons within them. This is a great aid to you as the parent when you sit with your child and help them with homework.
  • iReady is an online tool that works at your child's pace and level. It works towards slowly increasing skill development in both math and reading. I ask parents to have their child work on it daily if possible (especially those whom their child is struggling to meet academic standards) for a simple 20 minutes. 
  • IXL is another great reinforcement tool that can be used at home with your child. Both ELA and Math can be practiced on a weekly bases by your child.
  • Superkids Online Portal is available to students at home to practice their sound blending in order to read words and sentences. Both online games and books can be accessed for reinforcement.
Reminders
  1. Reminder that for students who are failing or struggling in reading and/or math, homework assigned on iReady is graded. They are used as action plans to help boost your child's grade as discussed during report cards. If these assignments are not completed, please don't come in last minute asking why your child is in danger of not being promoted to 1st grade. Assignments that are continuously not being completed is reported to Mr. Woods directly. 
  2. ITBS Testing will be completed on Friday, May 12th.
  3. Muffins for Mom is this Friday, May 12th at 8:30 am, we ask all Moms to please come and join us!
  4. Please be advised that dismissal continues to be at 3:15 pm and anyone waiting to pick up a child must wait until classroom doors are opened. (Remind grandparents, babysitters, etc.)
  5. Our class is running low on supplies, so I ask parents to please help and donate 1 box of tissues, 1 bottle of hand sanitizer and 1 container of Clorox Disinfecting wipes. Thanks in advance!
