Calling all students! 2011-2012

Boys and girls, the count down is on! Only 13 days until the first day of school. Boy, am I excited to see all of you!

We have lots of great things going on in room 206. Desks are getting cleaned, bulletin boards are almost up, and we're nearly ready for YOU to join us at Sioux Trail once again.

I'll post more updates as the summer comes to a close!

Check out the updated site and the new links below.

Have a great day,

Creating our State Posters!

Boys and Girls,

Today we will begin to organize our facts on the state that we have chosen to research. We will be creating posters to share the information we have found. Remember, you want to inform other students all about your STATE! Be sure to include all necessary facts and details that describe those facts. (Don't just say: "It's climate is warm." Tell us temperatures, weather patterns, and DETAILS!)

Check this site out in today's class:

The 50 States

Dear whoever is reading ,
This week we did many fun things. In math we learned congruent and similar and their meanings.In reading we read Into The Sea.We also had Wellness on Wheels. In math we also did fractions,percents, and decimals. We also played the game Concentration. Another thing we did was have a field trip.We went to the rivers and did science stuff like make boats and cars.On Wednesday we went to a band concert which had many wonderful players. Another thing that we acknowledge is the royal wedding.Miss Mulvahill got a hat and she says the next prince wants to marry her! Jokes! As you can see there are a lot of things that we did and what I hope to do next week.
Sincerely,
Miss AnneMarie Natalie Bittner

Homework Tonight 4/13

Students are coming home with a lot of great activities to work on tonight!

1. They need to complete 15 minutes on IXL Math. Remember that 15 minutes is the minimum, but they are welcomed to go above and beyond! Students need to first work on problem: 4.3.2.3. Why? It will help them study for their test coming on Monday! Also, I will be counting their SmartScore as a quiz grade in our gradebook.

2. Many students have already finishing the comprehension check for our story this week: A Peddler's Dream. However, if it is not yet done, it is homework tonight. Don't forget to use page numbers to show me where you found your information--PROVE your answer is right!

3. Finally, students have a quick spelling worksheet. It should not take students more than 5-10 minutes and it will help students stay fresh for their test on Friday.


Have a great night and see you tomorrow!
